Actor Siddharth, who is currently busy promoting his upcoming Tamil film ‘Takkar’, was asked an insensitive question about his ‘unsuccessful’ love life at an event. The actor answered the personal question without losing his cool and fans are impressed with the way he handled the situation.
A reporter asked Siddharth about his love life amid speculations that he’s dating Aditi Rao Hydari. The reporter said that the actor is quite popular for his love stories in films. However, he’s been not so successful, when it comes to real-life romance.
Taking the question in his stride, Siddharth said, ‘I’ve personally never thought about this even once, not even in my dreams. Even when I see my face in the mirror. But since you are really concerned about my love life, both of us can talk about it in private. Others have nothing to do with it, and it has nothing to do with the Takkar movie as well.’
Several people called out the reporter’s ‘cringeworthy’ question.
One Twitter user wrote, ‘Literally every time I see something with him, I start to cringe and feel disgust. There is a limit to asking someone questions like that on a public platform. He thinks he has this 'chanuvu (closeness)' with all those actors, but it’s gone to a point, where it’s just beyond ridiculous.’
Another person said, ‘I think he (the aforementioned reporter) should not be called for the press meets and media interactions. Everyone are feeling discomfort for his questions. Not because they can't answer but he is asking their personals or irrelevant questions.’
‘Takkar’, directed by Karthik G Krish, will release in theatres on June 9.
