Siddharth: 20 Years Between Roles, Worth the Wait
5 Aug
Summary
- Siddharth is content waiting for exciting scripts over frequent work.
- He achieved acclaim for 'Rang De Basanti' and now 'Operation Safed Sagar'.
- Language barriers do not limit his career opportunities.
Actor Siddharth measures his career not by the number of Hindi films, but by the significance of the roles. He has experienced a remarkable two-decade gap between major Hindi projects, first with 'Rang De Basanti' and now with the Netflix series 'Operation Safed Sagar'.
Siddharth expressed that he is not offered enough Hindi films to meet his expectations, stating he can only accept what is offered. He prefers waiting for years for a compelling project over taking on multiple roles for visibility.
The actor remains consistently employed across various film industries, working in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, and Bengali cinema. He emphasizes that language is not a barrier to his career, and he is open to working in America or England as well.
Directed by Oni Sen, 'Operation Safed Sagar' is inspired by the Indian Air Force's actions during the 1999 Kargil War, with Siddharth portraying Squadron Leader Ajay Ahuja. The series is set to premiere globally on August 7.
