Sidharth Malhotra is facing criticism online after a video from a Ganapati puja surfaced on social media. The actor was seen attending the celebration, but a brief moment with a fan caught viewers’ attention. After Sidharth appeared to avoid a handshake, some users accused him of showing attitude and called his behaviour rude. At the same time, several others defended the actor and said the short clip does not provide enough context to judge what happened.

Fan Interaction At Ganapati Puja Sparks Controversy

The viral video shows Sidharth Malhotra arriving at the Ganapati celebration. As he walked through the venue, a fan appeared to extend a hand towards him for a handshake. Sidharth did not stop and continued ahead, leading to a wave of comments online.

Some users criticised the actor for allegedly ignoring the fan, while others questioned why such a brief interaction had turned into a major issue.

Social Media Users Call Out Sidharth’s ‘Attitude’

Soon after the video began circulating, comments accusing Sidharth of showing attitude started appearing across social media. Some viewers felt that he could have acknowledged the fan more warmly.

The criticism, however, was not universal. Other users pointed out that the clip only captures a few seconds of the interaction and does not reveal what happened before or after the moment. As a result, the video has triggered different interpretations rather than a single clear reaction.

The actor’s appearance at the celebration comes as he prepares for the release of Vvaan: Force of the Forrest. Sidharth stars in the fantasy film alongside Tamannaah Bhatia, with the story revolving around a mysterious forest, faith and supernatural forces.

The trailer has already introduced audiences to a dangerous world where entering the forest after sunset comes with deadly consequences. The film is directed by Deepak Kumar Misra.

Vvaan Keeps Sidharth Malhotra In The Spotlight

Vvaan is scheduled to arrive in theatres on September 25 and has become an important release in Sidharth’s upcoming film lineup. The cast also includes Manish Paul, Shweta Tiwari, Sunil Grover and Anup Soni.

Meanwhile, the Ganapati puja video continues to circulate online. While some viewers remain unhappy with the actor’s interaction with the fan, others believe it is unfair to draw conclusions about his attitude from a short, isolated clip. For now, the controversy remains limited to social-media reactions, with Sidharth yet to publicly address the criticism.
