On social media, Ganesh had expressed his admiration for Malayalam cinema, stating that it has always been an inspiration to him and he was thrilled that his story was adapted by a legendary director in an industry he respects immensely.
Siddharth's recent film and speculation about 'Indian 3'
Meanwhile, actor Siddharth, who recently made headlines for his marriage to Bollywood actor Aditi Rao Hydari, is ready for Siddharth 40. His latest release Indian 2 failed to meet audience expectations, which has made everyone even more excited for Indian 3.
