Talking to the press after the film collected over ₹1000 crore worldwide, Arjun said, “As an Indian standing in the country’s capital, I believe India will lead the future of the world. India will be the leading country in the world.” He then added in Hindi, “Ye naya Bharat hai, ye ab rukega nahi, ye kabhi jhukega nahi (This is the new India, it won’t stop or bow down).” He then added that his ‘favourite part’ of the film was whenever his character Pushpa Raj said ‘main jhukega nahi’ (I won’t bow down).

Talking about Pushpa 2: The Rule breaking records and becoming the first Indian film to collect ₹1000 crore gross worldwide in less than a week, he said, “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.”
