During a media interaction, when asked how does he manage to convince his actors to follow his vision for his songs, the filmmaker said, “It stems from confidence. They (Hrithik and Deepika) are confident about themselves, their appearance.” To which Hrithik joked, “Sabse bada jhoot,” and Deepika added, “The most underconfident people are being labelled confident!”

Siddharth Anand said Hrithik and Deepika are two “gorgeous people”, who require nothing extraordinary out of him. ” I don’t need to do anything. Roll the camera at 48fps and make them walk and put great music.  Jokes apart, they work very hard. It is not easy to look like this. They put in a lot of effort and the one word I would actually use is sacrifice. There is a lot of sacrifice that goes into looking like this. They are relentless.”

Adding that she would like to “correct Sid”, Deepika said it is not about the “size” or fitness of a person but something else which makes one take up the task of being in a sizzling Siddharth Anand dance track.

“It is because you trust that he has the right sensibility and that it is going to be presented in the right way, is why then actors like us will make the effort or even allow for that conversation to happen. You trust the director, his aesthetic sense, you trust that it will be presented in the right way,” she added.

Fighter, which also stars Anil Kapoor and features Hrithik and Deepika as Air Force pilots, is set to release on Thursday. It is the first big Hindi film release of the year.
