Actor Siddharth Opens Up On Voicing His Political Views: “If I Don’t Speak Up, I’ll Feel Guilty”

Actor Siddharth is very vocal about his views on social media. In all the anti-CAA protests going on in many parts of the country, Siddharth is also one of the strongest voices from the film industry.

Along with Siddharth, other celebrities who are fierce and don’t shy away from sharing their thoughts are Anurag Kashyap, Swara Bhasker, Richa Chaddha, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayub, Pulkit Samrat, and many others.

In an interview with the Times of India, the actor was asked how he doesn’t believe in staying silent and often express his voice for the reason and if it transcends into the characters he plays. About the same, the Rang De Basanti actor said, “Not at all. I would have been the same person if you had met me in college. Nothing has changed in the last few months. It’s unfortunate that we are living in such a dark time when every day, something happens that makes your blood boil and you can’t believe it’s happening in the India you grew up in. So, it has more to do with the India I’m living in right now than my personality or my films.”

So isn’t he worried about all this affecting his career? The actor answered that he doesn’t want to work by staying quiet. He has been in the industry from the age of 21 and he isn’t worried about being called a kid who speaks a lot.
