Actor Siddharth, who has recently been in controversy amidst his new film release, Miss You, has been seen commenting on the clash with Pushpa 2 and the quality of the film. Allu Arjun fans were upset and quickly reacted to such bizarre comments made by the actor. Singer Mika Singh has reacted to actor Siddharth's comment on Allu Arjun's stardom and his pull at the Pushpa 2: The Rule trailer launch event in Patna.
A few days back, Siddharth, while promoting his film Miss You on YouTuber Madan Gowri’s podcast, commented on the huge turnout at Patna for the trailer launch of Pushpa 2. Siddharth called Allu Arjun's movie event a marketing gimmick and said, "That’s all marketing. It’s not a big deal to gather a crowd in India.
You bring a JCB for construction, and crowds will gather automatically. So it’s not a big deal getting a crowd in Bihar.” Mika took Siddharth's comment to Instagram and wrote that his distasteful comment has added more relevance to his career.
Mika mocked the Chitta actor, saying that before this comment, he didn't know about him. Sharing his thoughts on Instagram Stories, Mika wrote, "Hello Sidharth bhai, aapke iss comment pe ek baat achhi ho gayi hai ke, ke aaj se logo ko thora bohat aapka naam pata chal gaya hai, socho abhi tak tau mujhe bhi ni pata ki aap kya karte hai. (Hello Siddharth, one good thing to come out of your comment is that from today, people will know your name a little bit; just think, even I didn’t see what you do until now.
)” In the same podcast, Siddharth said that the turnout at the Pushpa 2 event was similar to political rallies where free biryani and alcohol were distributed. The actor said, "In India, there’s no connection between gathering a large crowd and quality. If that were the case, then all the political parties would be winning.
In our days, these crowds used to be about getting biriyani and a quarter packet (alcohol)." Well, gathering a crowd for any event or the amount of fans that gather for a star's film event in India is definitely crazy and unmatched, and there's nothing wrong in what Siddharth said, but the way he said this statement has definitely not just made Allu Arjun's fans upset but also is stirring up controversies among the industries. Just like how he mentioned Icon Star's marketing strategy for Pushpa 2, this might be a marketing gimmick of negative publicity for his upcoming film Miss You on December 13th.
As far as the box office is concerned, Pushpa 2: The Rule is breaking records like wildfire. In 6 days the movie has grossed Rs 1000 crores worldwide, and the movie has beaten the records of RRR, Pathaan, Jawan, and KGF 2. Not just in the Telugu states, but the film is doing great numbers in the Hindi belt as well.
