Did Pathan Director Siddharth Anand Slap His Assistant On Set of The Film? Know The Truth Here

Director Siddharth Anand, who’s at the moment busy with the taking pictures of his upcoming movie, Pathan, starring Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, and John Abraham, made headlines at the moment after studies of him slapping an assistant surfaced on-line. A supply informed Bollywood Hungama, “Siddharth is known for having a certain temperament on the sets. Given that he’s the captain of the ship, he didn’t like how a particular assistant was behaving during work. He also wanted all phones to be kept away but the assistant didn’t pay heed to any of his requests. He followed the behaviour for some time and then confronted him. That led to a big argument but people thought it was just that. Shooting resumed post that break.” Also Read – Varun Dhawan, Natasha Dalal Wedding: Producer Pahlaj Nihalani Spills Beans on Their Weekend Wedlock “The assistant kept abusing Siddharth and bad-mouthing him to other workers on the set. This reached Siddharth and he was furious. He went out and literally slapped the guy who in turn slapped him back. There was huge chaos on the sets and shooting had to be stalled for the day,” the supply added. Also Read – Akshay Kumar’s Bell Bottom To Have Direct-To-OTT Release on Amazon Prime Video? However, commerce supply has rubbished studies of any bodily combat with an assistant on the set of the movie. According to him, the studies are ‘absolutely baseless and untrue’. Hindustan Times quoted the supply as saying, “Sid and his team share a bond beyond years and they all look up to him as their big brother. The truth of the matter is that a light man was slightly injured while doing his job and he was being tended to. Thankfully, it wasn’t serious. But a junior artist was taking a video of the incident with an ulterior motive to circulate it.” Also Read – ‘Take Their Heads Off’!

The supply claimed that the junior artist was attempting to file as it’s ‘highly insensitive’. “However, he was slyly trying to do the same again. That’s when the director, as the leader of the team, sternly asked him to hand over his mobile phone and exit the set. Sid was upset that someone can be so insensitive. The junior artist, however, tried to become aggressive and the security immediately escorted him out of the sets. That’s the plain truth. Nobody got physical on the sets and there certainly was no slapping. It is utterly incorrect”, the supply added. Meanwhile, Pathan is an action-drama movie that marks the return of Shah Rukh Khan after the sabbatical of two years. Watch this area for the newest updates!
