Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu had created a stir when his ''Bollywood cannot afford me' remark at the trailer launch Adivi Sesh sparked a debate on social media. However, Pushpa star Allu Arjun has no issues working in the Hindi film industry. He said that while he might not be comfortable with Hindi but he would love to do a Bollywood film if required.
"Acting in Hindi is a little out of my comfort zone for now, but once there is a requirement, I'll go all-out," Allu Arjun told India Today. Those who don't know, the Telugu star also owns an apartment in Mumbai.
At the event, the Sarkaru Vaari Paata actor had stated, "I may come across as arrogant, but I have received numerous offers in Hindi. However, I believe they cannot afford me. I don't want to squander any of my time or others. I never considered leaving Telugu cinema or going to other places, because of the fame and love I have here. I've always imagined making films here and seeing them grow in popularity, and that dream is now becoming a reality. I couldn't be more pleased."
After the enormous success of the first instalment of the film, Allu Arjun's popularity in the north belt has skyrocketed. The filmmakers now want to seize the momentum and are paying special attention to Pushpa: The Rule's execution.
