Recently, Sidharth was asked about his marriage plans. “I don’t know, I’m not an astrologer. To who is more important. When it happens, I will let everyone know. There’s no timeline, and it has to be done correctly,” he told indianexpress.com.
“The way she carries herself is unlike most film actors. She has this sense of regular personhood that I really appreciate and admire because it’s easy to be an off-the radar type with no pressure on you at all! About change, its a harsh word we use…I wouldn’t want any alterations made in regards towards my character or anything else – LSinghp Evans plays them beautifully as they are right now (although there could’ve been some improvements).
All things considered though; if given only one option between staying status quo & having something added/removed from story arc then choose”, Sidharth said.
