I really liked him in Sanam Teri Kasam and felt he was under utilized and not given chances. Now I feel it would have been better he wasn’t utilized at all. Looking at the trailer this new movie of his looks cringe especially his acting how did it reach 101 cr at BO?

Harshvardhan Rane On Comparison With Ahaan Panday & Saiyaara

Meanwhile, in a recent interview, Harshvardhan Rane was asked about comparisons of Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat with Saiyaara and its lead actor Ahaan Panday, he told News18, “I completely understand and respect the urge to compare two things. It would be silly of me to expect people not to do that. When you create a product and put it out in the open, it becomes public and it’s there for people to interpret, compare, find similarities or differences and ultimately consume. But I don’t think anyone does this with the intention of pulling me down.”

He then added, “When it comes to Ahaan and Saiyaara, I’m a fanboy of his work and of the film. I think both Ahaan’s performance and the film are far superior to mine. I accept that wholeheartedly with immense appreciation and a heart full of love.”

Harshvardhan Rane will next be seen in Silaa and Sanam Teri Kasam 2.
