We Are Just Soft Targets: Sidharth Malhotra on Pak Artistes Ban
Artistes be it in any kind of creative field, be it movies, have no connection with what happens politically in different countries. I don't personally think it's going to make a difference to our situations, we are just soft targets and that's why they are trying to bring this issue up. So it's sad.Sidharth Malhotra to The Quint
I've worked with Fawad and we didn't cast somebody because of their nationality, we cast them as an individual as performers and there are so many other technicians who come from all around the world to India to work, not just actors, there are cameramen, make-up artistes. The world is becoming smaller and smaller, you can't say "yes" or "no" to one particular nationality.
When asked about the news of Fawad Khan leaving India for Pakistan, Sidharth said, "Fawad was never here, I am in touch with him, so I know."
