Siddharth recently raised controversy with his comments about the success of Pushpa 2: The Rule. Directed by Sukumar, the film features Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna. The movie has been breaking records since its release on December 5. During promotions for his movie Miss You, Siddharth seemingly mocked a promotional event for Pushpa 2 in Patna, Bihar, that drew a massive crowd.
Siddharth downplayed the gathering, suggesting it was a routine promotional tactic. He compared the large turnout to crowds gathered around a JCB digging site, implying that crowd size needs to reflect quality. He says large crowds can be drawn in India for various reasons, including incentives like free food and drinks.
He reportedly stated, “Even a JCB digging site attracts a crowd in our country. So, people gathering to see Allu Arjun in Bihar is not extraordinary. If crowd size indicated quality, every political party would win elections.”
