Kiara on Sidharth’s reaction to intimate scenes

As the conversation progressed, Kiara Advani also addressed the heat she faced over the intimate scenes with Yash. When host Karan Johar pointed out that some were even asking for Sidharth Malhotra’s reaction to these scenes, Kiara revealed, “I fed off his energy because he had not cared about it. He never even brought it up. We have never even spoken about this. It didn’t affect him, nor was he bothered about it. Besides, such things (criticisms) have been happening for decades, and many wonderful actors have faced them, starting with Aishwarya Rai. When I saw what was going on on the internet… There was a massive reaction. People had already started calling out the ‘hypocrisy.’ So, I really didn’t feel the need to justify it.”
