"I had been getting constant calls from the media and my friends. I have gone through a lot of difficulty in the last few months. I had done an NC (non-cognizable police report) against my family and they created further troubles for me," said Siddharth in the video.
This is the video shared by Sidharth:
"I am right now in safe hands and the people with whom I am staying, really helped me a lot. Give me a couple of more days and I would come out in open to talk about what I went through." Sidharth also thanked people for the concern and added, "Seeing the concern of so many people, I decided to post this video. I will soon share my ordeal with all of you. Thanks for being there."
While there were reports that Sidharth shared a conflicting relationship with his mother, a close aide of Sidharth told indianexpress.com that he is very close to his mother and family. "It's so strange because he was very close to his mother and family. If he is saying that he filed a complaint against them, I am sure it must be a big issue, for they were a close-knit family. I have been trying to reach out to him for a long time but his number was also disconnected. I am relieved to see Sidharth's video and waiting for him to speak out."
