Allu Arjun recently visited Delhi to promote his latest film Pushpa 2: The Rule. Following his press meet at the national capital, speculations originated as to his political ambitions. However, the south Indian superstar's team has clarified that he has no such plan.
"We would like to clarify that recent rumours about Mr. Allu Arjun entering politics are entirely false and baseless. We kindly request media outlets and individuals to refrain from spreading unverified information," said the actor's team in a statement.
Meanwhile, Pushpa 2: The Rule has made, in less than a week, a total worldwide gross of Rs 1000 crore, as per trade reports. Commenting on this, Arjun said at the event, “Numbers are temporary, but love is etched in hearts forever. I always believe records are meant to be broken. It’s nice I am in this top spot now, but in the next 2-3 months, I hope these records are broken soon, no matter which film does it, be it Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, or any other. That’s progression; that means India is going up. I wish for these numbers to be broken as soon as possible because that is growth, and I love growth.”
