In one of the conversations, Ananya Panday was seen commenting on Nepotism in the industry and she also spoke about the struggles of a star kid in Bollywood. She had said then, “I have always wanted to be an actor. Just because my dad has been an actor, I will never say no to an opportunity to act. My dad has never been in a Dharma film, he never went on ‘Koffee With Karan’. So, it’s not as easy as people say. Everyone has their own journey and their own struggle.”

Adding on his opinion, Siddhanth had interrupted saying, “Jahaan humaare sapne poore hote hai, waha inke struggle shuru hote hai.” While netizens hailed Siddhant’s comment and praised him for his befitting comment, Ananya on the other had received a lot of criticism from people on social media.

Now, giving clarification on his ‘struggle’ comment, Siddhant in a recent conversation with IANS opened up saying, “It was a topic of nepotism and I was the last one to speak. It so happened that she spoke before me.”

“And I just concluded so it was a conclusive statement. If you actually think about that line, it only implies the start point and endpoint of the struggle. I guess the internet made a thing out of it. They made memes and edited it to make it look like I’ve got a thug life. But it was not meant to be taken like that,” he concluded saying.

On the work fronts, Siddhant Chaturvedi is gearing up for the release of ‘Bunty Aur Babli 2’. The film is being helmed by Varun V Sharma and it also stars Saif Ali Khan and Rani Mukerji in the key roles. The film is slated to hit the silver screens in June.
