Sidharth Malhotra, who made his Bollywood debut with the 2012 hit, 'Student of the Year', has had a meteoric rise to fame. When asked about his rising career graph, the actor revealed that the pressure of performing off-screen is what bothers him. He said, "It's the pressure of performing when the cameras are turned off that bothers me. Fame is short-lived and I don't want to fake it."
The actor further added, "I have lived 25 years of my life doing fun things but now if I spend time with close friends or even family, it is up for conversation. I understand it's the nature of my job, but I'm still that Delhi boy who doesn't want everything he does to get published because he believes he's big sh*t. That's a terrible space to be in and I never want stardom to go to my head. So I go from Delhi boy to Bollywood actor over and over in my head."
The actor believes that since he is not from the industry he is grateful for everything. Sidharth, who has just wrapped up the shoot of Raj and DK's 'Reloaded' said, "Everything makes me feel fortunate."
Talking about his next 'Ittefaq', which is a remake of Yash Chopra's 1969 murder mystery, the actor said, "Dharma Productions and Red Chillies Entertainment are coming together and that makes it a film with a lot of metal. You can expect something different and special."
On being asked about his next with Alia Bhatt, the actor revealed that 'Aashiqui 3' starring him and Alia is in the final scripting stage and will hopefully go on floors soon.
