Ridhi, in an interview Hindustan TimesShared that he was criticized for supporting his country. “In the case of the film, I talked to my country, and suddenly I was being harassed by saying that”Oho But he worked with (Fawad Khan). But I was firm. Do not threaten me I am as much citizen of this country as you. When I did that work, I was taking great care of the laws of my country. I did not do anything illegal. And today, when we are in this position, I think I want to stand with my country, my armed forces. And not because I am anything important, but just because you are all, “he said.
Apart from Riddi, actor Harshvardhan Rane had said that he would not be a part of ‘Sanam Teri Kasam 2’, if his Pakistani co-actress Mavra Hocken was part of the film.
