  • I Was Always Intrigued By Army: Siddhanth Kapoor
Actor Siddhanth Kapoor, who will next be seen playing an Indian Army officer in J.P. Dutta's film "Paltan", says the profession always intrigued him.
 
 
The "Haseena Parkar" actor is known for playing grey characters in films. So, it was a great change for him to play an Indian Army officer.
