The actor’s statement comes after a user took to X (formerly known as Twitter) and claimed that he was duped of Rs 50 lakhs by a fan page made for Sidharth Malhotra. He mentioned that he had paid the fan page to get insider information about the actor and also to speak with Malhotra. He said, “I paid them weekly charges to get inside info & speak with Sid. Also, I bought Sid 3 gift hampers, which I found out were photoshopped. Apart from this, expenses were made to save Sid from death or torture. All this led to a loss of 50 lakhs.”

Malhotra and Advani married in February 2023. On the work front, Malhotra was last seen in ‘Yodha’, while Advani was last seen in ‘Satyaprem Ki Katha.’
