Vishwak Sen finally breaks silence on his rift with Arjun Sarja: ‘Wouldn't happen if I was from a film family'

Actor Vishwak Sen was supposed to star in ‘Action King’ Arjun Sarja’s directorial along with daughter Aishwarya. However, the movie landed in controversy when the veteran star held a press conference and slammed Vishwak and accused him of being unprofessional and cancelling the shoot at the last minute.

Now, Sen has opened up about his rift and questioned if the same thing would’ve happened if he was from a film family.  “I said okay to the film because I was promised it would be a collaborative effort. I did not walk out or cancel the shoot, I wanted to postpone it by a day for some clarity. But I think he felt how can someone like me, with no background, ask him for that. He came to my house to talk to my parents also. I didn’t want to prolong the issue because I’ve realised, one bad day is better than a bad film,” said Vishwak in an interview with Rajesh Manne.

He added, “I am not answerable to anyone. I have paid back double the amount I have taken. I don’t carry that baggage anymore. I was the one defamed here. You will be treated differently if you don’t have a filmy background. I was also once humiliated by anchor Nagavalli on live TV. That wouldn’t happen to someone with a background. I am just an easy target. But it’s an advantage to others when I react, so I’ve stopped reacting.”
