Siddharth stirred controversy with his remarks about Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2, downplaying the significance of the massive crowd that gathered in Patna to see the star.
He compared the crowd to people gathering to see a JCB on the street, implying that such crowds do not necessarily translate to box office success.
Despite his comments, Pushpa 2 became a massive hit in the Hindi-speaking regions.
When questioned further about his statements, Siddharth clarified today that his remarks were not intended to be negative. He emphasized that he has no rivalry with Allu Arjun.
Siddharth explained that he was speaking about a general trend of crowds assembling at events and that his comments were not a critique of Allu Arjun or the film.
He acknowledged the challenges of delivering a big hit in the current scenario.
He congratulated Allu Arjun on the film’s success. However, fans of Allu Arjun are demanding a public apology from Siddharth for his earlier remarks.
