Luv Sinha 'won film part without family'

Luv Sinha has defended being cast in Sadiyaan and denied that his family pulled any strings to get him the part of Eshaan.

The actor, whose dad is the '70s Bollywood actor Shatrughan Sinha, said that his family had never worked with the director of Sadiyaan, Raj Kanwarji.

"The best thing about being Shatrughan Sinha’s son is you feel a positive pride from within," Sinha told The Times of India.

"Beyond that, he has made sure to let me make my way in the industry on my own. My father has never worked with Raj Kanwarji. I got Sadiyaan on my own."

Sinha also ruled out working with his twin brother Kush as the types of roles available to the pair would be limited.

"What can we do together? A comedy with both the brothers falling in love with the same girl? Nah."
