Sidharth Malhotra and Alia Bhatt will be seen opposite each other in ‘Aashiqui 3’. The first two instalments of the franchise were not only successful at the Box Office but also received a lot of appreciation. I wonder if the duo is feeling the pressure of matching people’s expectations. Talking about this Sidharth said, “Definitely, there will be a lot of expectations. We don’t know when exactly it will go on floors. Now, it’s in the scripting stage. This sequel will be equally exciting, if not more, as the previous one. And music will have a great part to play in it."
The ‘Kapoor and Sons’ actor also said that he believes in living in the present and learning from every single experience, “Now, the struggle is to keep reinventing yourself with your work. One thing that I have learnt from many senior actors is that you can never take anything for granted. Whether one is working with the best director or a first-time director - every experience teaches you a lot. You have to forget the past and live in the present. No matter how successful I have been in the past or how bad my last Friday [release] was, the only thing in my control is what I am giving out next," said Sid.
Sidharth fondly showed his gratitude towards his mentors in the industry saying, “It has to be two people. One is Karan Johar, who is my karta dharta (like my godfather) in the industry, and the other is Reshma Shetty, who manages my work. They both are very senior in their respective fields and know the industry well. They are sweet and protective; like my guardians in the industry."
The actor is currently shooting for his upcoming film ‘Reload’ alongside Jacqueline Fernandez which is scheduled to release on 25th August 2017.
