Siddharth Sparks Controversy with Pushpa 2 Comments on Crowd Gatherings

At a recent movie event, Siddharth made an unintentional comment. He spoke about Pushpa 2 and the crowd that gathered in Patna, Bihar, during the event. Siddharth compared the popularity of Pushpa 2 to the buzz created by Pushpa 1 but added that people gather at events in India for various reasons, including construction work sounds and political gatherings. He joked that crowd attendance at such events isn’t necessarily a sign of a film's success.

He further explained that the idea of people gathering is very common in India, especially during political meetings, where the presence of large crowds is expected. Siddharth humorously added that people attend these events for "Beer and Biryani" and shared his views on how this reflects the culture of mass gatherings in the country. His statement highlighted how, in his perspective, crowd presence alone doesn't ensure a film's success.

Netizens are now trolling Siddharth for his comments, saying that while he was joking, the remarks should translate into good box office collections for Pushpa 2. Siddharth’s statements, which many fans find controversial or unnecessary during promotional interviews, are becoming a recurring trend. His recent comment showcases his candidness but also his apparent naivety in analyzing Pan-India films like Pushpa 2.

Siddharth about #Pushpa2TheRule event:
- It's not a big matter that crowd gathering in Bihar, it's marketing. In India Even for JCB crowd will gather
- For all political meetings the crowd is gathering. We call it as Biryani & quarter packet crowd pulling pic.twitter.com/hE1km7G8IJ
