Controversial
business
tycoon
Vijay
Mallya's
son
Sidhartha
Mallya
was
recently
in
the
news
for
turning
author
with
the
book
'If
I'm
Honest'.
Apart
from
this,
he
has
also
revealed
that
he
had
auditioned
for
some
movies
and
series
to
pursue
an
active
acting
career.
Amidst
this,
rumours
had
been
rife
that
he
had
been
rejected
for
Priyanka
Chopra's
show
Quantico
for
which
he
had
reportedly
auditioned.
Now
Sidhartha
has
spoken
about
the
same.
Talking
to
Film
Companion
about
the
same,
Sidhartha
Mallya
said,
"I
never
spoke
about
Quantico,
that
was
written
about
by
journalists
in
India.
I
love
the
way
that...
I
remember
that
so
clearly.
You
just
used
the
word
'rejected'
and
I
remember
all
the
press
around
it,
because
Priyanka,
it
was
her
show."
He
further
took
a
dig
at
the
media
for
labelling
him
to
be
'rejected'
or
'failed'
just
because
he
could
not
get
the
part
in
the
show.
Sidhartha
Mallya
said,
"They
also
used
the
word
'failed'.
And
I
just
love
the
way
that
the
Indian
press
goes
to
these
very
negative
terms.
The
fact
of
the
matter
is,
you
have
100
people
auditioning
for
a
role.
You
don't
get
the
role,
someone
gets
it.
That
doesn't
mean
you
'failed'
or
you
got
'rejected'.
It's
not
a
test,
it's
art.
It's
subjective.
I
found
that
very
funny...
If
that's
the
case
then
I
failed
in
over
100
auditions.
Great.
But
it's
different
in
the
West.
In
India,
we've
seen
this,
there's
a
much
quicker
route
for
people
to
go
from
zero
to
stardom
and
lead
films
than
there
is
in
the
West,
in
that
model."
Sidhartha
Mallya
also
confessed
in
the
interview
that
he
could
not
taste
the
success
in
his
acting
career
as
he
had
thought
he
would
be.
He
also
revealed
that
he
had
auditioned
for
the
show
True
Detective.
Mallya
said
the
real
reason
to
have
not
landed
the
part
to
be,
"They
loved
my
audition,
but
I
didn't
look
like
a
gangster
from
any
angle." Meanwhile,
talking
about
his
book,
Sidhartha
has
penned
down
his
tumultuous
journey
battling
mental
health
issues
and
anxiety
in
the
same.
