Bollywood stars Sidharth Malhotra made his grand and glamorous
Bollywood debut along with Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan in Karan Johar's Student
of the Year.
It's been five years since the actor's debut in SOTY and
since then, Sidharth has been affiliated with numerous hits like Kapoor &
Sons and A Villain and a few failures as well like Baar Baar Dekho and A
Gentleman.
When a tabloid questioned Sidharth about his journey so far,
the actor responded, "There have been a lot of ups-and-downs. I don’t feel
I have been here for that long, but I think I’ve gained a lot ofmaturity. I am
still a young actor who is still learning. That process is not over. There is
so much to absorb, understand and use. I feel this is the beginning for me.
With Ittefaq, I have learnt to try something different. So I am in that early
phase of maturing. The struggling Delhi boy in me still hasn’t left (smiles),
so I still have the hunger and anxiety to keep challenging [myself] and try new
things. I don’t look at five years as a benchmark at all. I feel that the
journey is very long, and this is just the beginning."
On whether the Delhi boy in him is still very much alive,
Sidharth disclosed, "Absolutely! The boy from Bhagat Singh College and
Defence Colony is still there. I feel now is the time for him to get into
movies, especially since people have not seen that side of mine. It is a very
interesting phase and I can use those facets and aspects of my life in my
performances. But I don’t feel that I have arrived at all. Five years may be a
landmark, but in terms of films and legacy, it is not. Hopefully, ten years
from now, I will have a legacy."
In the meantime, Sidharth will next be seen in Neeraj
Pandey's Aiyaary which also stars Manoj Bajpayee. Aiyaary is scheduled to
release on January 26, 2018, and will be clashing with Akshay Kumar's PadMan.
