Shakti’s son pays the price for tiff with Salman

Zeenews Bureau

Mumbai: Shakti Kapoor, who is currently held captive in `Bigg Boss 5` house is feeling apologetic for his behaviour with Salman Khan. The veteran actor had apparently miffed his younger colleague in the past and is repenting for having annoyed the superstar. Reportedly, Shakti’s son Siddhant was supposed to be launched by the `Dabangg` Khan. But ever since Bollywood villain and Khan had a tiff over reasons not yet known, junior Kapoor’s dream of a starry launch shattered. Though the young actor has finally grabbed the role of a sharpshooter in Sanjay Gupta’s `Shootout at Wadala`, that also stars Anil Kapoor and John Abraham, he failed to find space under Salman’s wings. According to a source’s revelation to a tabloid, Shakti had confessed in one of the episodes of `Bigg Boss 5` that he is now feeling guilty of having hurt Salman Khan. “Shakti was referring to Salman. As Shakti was in an inebriated state, he later realised what he had done. But it was too late to make amends,” said the source. Siddhant was also being considered by Sanjay Dutt for the remake of `Satte Pe Satta`. But ever since Sanjay learnt of Shakti and Salman’s animosity, he dropped the idea of taking Kapoor’s son in his home production. “Siddhanth was then being considered for the remake of `Satte Pe Satte` which is being produced by Sanjay Dutt. But as the project has yet to take off, he decided to move on." Siddhant who is also a DJ, essays the role of a sharpshooter in Shootout at Wadala that also stars Anil Kapoor and John Abraham. "Siddhant has an independent identity of his own and deserves to be on the big screen. Plus he is a very talented and a good-looking boy,” said Sanjay Gupta to the tabloid.
