Says, Siddharth,“The reason we used the word ‘Bombay’ is because our movie isset in 1980. If we had used the word Mumbai, it would have been factuallyincorrect, and misleading for the audiences. I play the character of Suryakant,who’s born in a slum in the 1980s.”Siddharth, who hasalso sung the track, says, “Hurting anyone’s sentiments is not ourintention. I myself don’t want to take any chances as this is a specialsong for me in my career, as I’m trying to prove my singing credibility inBollywood. We will meet whoever is offended by our movie andapologise.”Siddharth, who will soon move into a new house inMumbai, is planning to buy a house in Delhi as well.Follow us on Twitter for more stories
