Sidharth Malhotra has had a decent run at the box-office this year with his film 'A Gentleman' performing moderately well and 'Ittefaq' getting critical acclaim and also raking in the moolah. Sidharth, has also signed 'Aiyaary' a war-drama to be directed by Neeraj Pandey. Spanning out his career from the time of his debut in 'Student Of The Year' in 2012, Sidharth has covered most of the genres in Bollywood. Talking about his film choices in an interview to DNA , he says he is not swayed by box-office numbers. " I am looking at the bigger picture as opposed to the smaller things. I can’t keep thinking about the box-office business. You can’t live off a big hit for a long time, but if you get appreciation, you get a bigger equity and a better legacy. Yes, of course, there are films that have not done well, but there have been movies that have been appreciated as well. I’m not insecure in that zone because I still have the same confidence with which I came into this industry. I know that I will make it, but there’s time to do that. It will happen over some time. It’s a matter of getting the correct combination. These are times to learn from because an actor learns the most when things don’t go his way. There’s a sense of maturity that comes in and fear goes away. And that will only help me better myself as a performer."
