Whatever visibility he got amongst the bunch of actors, the film had Salman Khan, Pooja Hegde, Venkatesh all big names but despite having so many big names if you were still able to see Siddharth and he’s standing out and you remember him after leaving the theatre that’s what matters.” He expressed that every artist wants to be seen more on screen and that is going to stay.
