Koimoi's Birthday Exclusive : 8 Things You Didn’t Know About Sidharth Malhotra

While he celebrates his quiet 28th Birthday today, we bring you 8 things which you never knew about your favourite newcomer.

1) Colours that you can’t just do without: It might sound cliché but I love black and white.

2) Modeling directing or acting, your pick would be: Modeling is fun because it gets you fast bucks. Acting is challenging as you play diverse roles everyday but someday I would definitely like to make my own film.

3) One sport you swear by: It has to be Rugby and strikingly, it is playing Rugby which got me into becoming a fitness freak.

4) Your favourite pastime is: To draw cartoons. I just love doing that.

5) Your guilty indulgence is: Jalebi. I cannot resist having them even though I know I need to cut down on my sugar content to look my character. Now that I have actually started working out, I haven’t even tried it for a while.

6) The Bollywood actors you would love to share screen with: I would say Mr. Bachchan and Kajol. Very few people know that I was an Assistant Director on the sets of Karan’s ‘My Name is Khan’ which had Kajol in the lead. She is one of the most versatile actresses we have and I feel I am unlucky that I am too young to romance her on screen. But someday, I want to be in the same frame with her. Mr. Bachchan is a legend and ask anyone this question, they would eventually come up with his name.

7) One contemporary actor who you think is the biggest competition: That would be unfair to list any one or two among the lot. Everyone from Ranbir, Varun, Ranveer, Arjun, Imran: all of them are fantastic heroes and they are equally talented. I take all of them as my biggest competitors.

8) One character trait you wish you could change in yourself would be: The fact that I a bit too reticent and mostly shy with people around. People tend to feel I am too serious.
