Siddharth 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. They (Pushpa 2) had a song and a film so OK. In India, there¡¯s no connection between gathering a large crowd and quality. If that was 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)."
Reacting to it, some felt that he was being ¡®too salty¡¯ about the film¡¯s success.

One wrote, ¡°Is he just salty or just trying to manufacture some stupid controversy for attention? People clearly like Pushpa/Pushpa 2, esp in the north, and the numbers reflect that too. What sort of dumb take is this.¡±
Another added, ¡°What a salty guy. Can't make himself part of something watchable in 20 + years of his career apart from 4 or 5 movies but throwing shades as if he didn't do takkar or Indian 2.¡±
For the unversed, Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna¡¯s Pushpa 2 has set box office on fire and it is still running in theaters.
