Siddharth Takes a Dig at 'Pushpa 2', Mocks Allu Arjun, Says 'There is No Quality'
South superstar Allu Arjun’s film Pushpa 2: The Rule is making a tremendous impact at the box office. Meanwhile, South actor Siddharth has mocked Allu Arjun. During the trailer launch event of the film in Patna, Siddharth compared the crowd gathered to see Allu Arjun to the crowd that gathers to watch JCB machines digging. He also stated that a large crowd does not equate to quality.
The trailer of Pushpa 2 was launched in Patna, Bihar, where millions of fans gathered. Siddharth commented, “In our country, people gather in large numbers to watch a JCB dig, so it’s not unusual for people to gather in Bihar to see Allu Arjun. If an event is organized, there will definitely be a crowd. But in India, a crowd does not mean quality. If it did, all political parties would win elections. People wouldn’t need to distribute biryani packets and bottles of alcohol.”
Siddharth’s comment has upset Allu Arjun’s fans, with many accusing him of jealousy. Some fans urged him not to speak ill of one of the biggest stars in the country. Siddharth’s video has gone viral on social media, with one fan commenting, “He always spreads negativity.” Another fan said, “No one in South India knows Siddharth.” One more user wrote, “Siddharth is speaking this way because he’s jealous.”
According to Sacnilk, Pushpa 2 passed the Monday test with double-digit earnings. In India, the film collected ₹64 crore on Monday, while its Hindi version earned ₹46 crore, setting a benchmark. While other big films struggle to make single-digit earnings on the first Monday, Pushpa 2 continues its impressive run. The Telugu version of Pushpa 2 earned ₹14 crore on Monday. The film’s massive success in North India showcases the growing fanbase of Allu Arjun.
In India, Pushpa 2 has earned ₹593 crore in five days, with ₹331 crore from the Hindi version alone. Directed by Sukumar, Pushpa 2: The Rule stars Allu Arjun, Fahadh Faasil, Jagapati Babu, Sunil, and Rashmika Mandanna in important roles. It is the sequel to the 2021 blockbuster Pushpa: The Rise
