Yes his words were completely twisted and then printed to create controversy!! 😡

First of all, why is he even being asked about Shivangi and her transformation to Pallavi in such detail?!

Anyway, I think he's just not accustomed to interviews on this side of the industry. I know I harp on about his South Indian-ness a lot (for lack of a better word), but I feel that's truly where his professionalism, humility, and modesty stem from. He doesn't know how to mince his words, he's honest and perhaps a little media shy, that's all.

I don't think he was outright judging Shivangi either. That was just his first impression and valid at that, she clearly proved him wrong and he had no qualms admitting that either.

In fact, even Shivangi once said that she didn't think she could pull off Pallavi but it was Sandip sir's conviction that convinced her. So there we have it - kudos to Shivangi for acing Pallavi and exceeding everyone's expectations as well as her own! 👏

He does. He gets nervous and it's so normal whereas Shivangi is just fine with Interview and stuffs. We should cut the guy some slack. He is trying to open up with fans, shouldn't judge him like this. He might get into total reserved mode and then Ppl will call him arrogant for avoiding interviews.

It's his first time being under radar, and also clicking absolute answers in the mind gets u nervous.

Exactly. Shivangi is very articulate and too good with her words. So even if any weird or awkward question is thrown at her, she is able to handle them well. She was also into modelling since her college days so she has that experience you know. She has an idea how this industry works. Whereas it's a completely different, new experience and exposure for Ketan here in Hindi industry. Like he doesn't even know the names of TV stars. Also he himself admitted in an IV that he can't open up to people easily and is restricted to himself so we shouldn't judge him for his thanda "hi" response to Shivangi either. They seem to be getting along well now.

I saw their Live together few days ago one, you can vouch he was very nervous and couldn't even understand few things and Shivangi was guiding her very much. It happens, they r actors and not leaders whose work is to Speak to audience n convince them.. Shivangi definitely knows to face the audience since she was a Model. And not everyone is fabulous with Interviews. And these Interviewers throws uncomfortable Questions too much.

Let's not judge him and make him uncomfortable. Accept his flaws ❤️ Feel bad the way he gets nervous. I m not even a fan of them but this guy is genuine. And as Shivangi said Sai is very honest if he doesn't like someone he just doesn't, so definitely he n Shivangi has their cammarede, fans should stop getting offended everytime on petty things on their behalf.

He never insulted Shivangi..

Having watched both interviews, it seems that Shivangi is really good with words and has a good camaraderie with Ketan. Earlier, not so much, now she has accepted his personality and they are good professional friends, like she said. She is helping him with finessing being diplomatic in interviews, calming his temper and such. He is like many South Industry actors, great at their craft and acting, and very humble and shy in front of Hindi interviewers. I feel he may be able to better articulate his thoughts if the interview was in his mother tongue, Telugu.

Shivangi being from Pune and Mumbai has had lots of experience and her talking is very good, very articulate and also very professional. She does seem to take liberties talking about her first impression of Ketan and how now they have good rapport. Similarly, if Sai feels he had a first impression of Shivangi but how that changed along the way, these TV interviews need to cut him some slack.

I have a feeling by the end of this show he will be speaking much better and more finesse in interviews and know when and what to explain and when to not. Also to not take things too seriously in Hindi industry and how gossip tv channels are always mincing words looking for fodder to feed the audience for drama sake.

They are being unfair to him and making him appear to be something he isn't. He's a straightforward person who doesn't fake his responses so he says what comes to mind in a genuine manner. There was no disrespect or malicious intent on his part whatsoever.

As if the recent bashing on social media wasn't bad enough, he now has to deal with this?

This exposure and fame is new and unexpected for him. I know he'll get used to awkward questions and situations but my only worry is that this will deter him from doing more work in itv in future. That would be a real shame.

As for whether it will discourage him from doing many interviews, well that's his call. There are many actors all over the world who are successful and masters of their craft but who don't interact with the media much, either because they don't like it or because they want privacy, or both. To each his own.

Hope so we continue to see him in more serials with mass appeal! He is really good at action and a serial along the lines of detective/thriller genre will be great to watch him in.

He is also getting so much better in romantic and soft scenes and the more accepting of him a co-actor is, he seems to act better with that person.

As a Cancerian, (july birthday), he seems to be a perfectionist, introverted but very loyal and close to family and friends. Its the typical Cancer zodiac sign personality. They are excellent at their craft and most are in the creative field.

Also Shivangi has time and again took the liberty to call him ghamandi so I don't think she will mind. He has only praised her in the whole interview.

I would be really happy if he stays away from such interviews. These people ask more questions about Shivangi than about him. 🤔

Often co actors or colleagues have no problem with each other but the media will use silly tricks for sensationalizing things.

The one thing I don't understand is why hindi interviewers are so insensitive and illogical? They have no questions to ask about the craft . They don't do the basic homework about the actor or his work. More than half of the questions were like baits hoping to catch some sensational content.
