Siddharth Anand hit back

Siddharth Anand, director of the film Pathan, posted on X and wrote, ‘The people of Juhu-Bandra have given most of the all-time blockbuster (ATBB) films in the last 50 years. One would have to be a real idiot to underestimate his contribution.

Juhu – Bandra peeps have given all ATBB’s since the past 50 years. You have to be a real duffer to undermine their contribution.
