Nikhil thanks Coronavirus in an 'insensitive' comment

  • IndiaGlitz, [Friday,February 28 2020]

Nikhil Siddhartha has thanked Coronavirus and called it humour when his insensitivity was called out. At a time when Corona is scaring China and other countries, consuming lives and spoiling the economies, the 'Arjun Suravaram' actor tweeted out this: Thank you, Coronavirus. This would also be the right time to buy stocks.

The young actor went on to justify the comment by saying that there are bigger threats, including cold. The poor virus can never kill as many as humans kill each other. Not even as many as alcohol or cigarettes kill. Damn, not even as many as the common cold kills. Flus come and go. We will survive this one comfortably. Our human immune systems will win this, Nikhil wrote.

He later said that humour is needed in tragic times like this.

On personal front, Nikhil will get wedded to Dr. Pallavi Varma in April. On work front, he will start shooting for 'Karthikeya-2' sooner than later. The actor will also be doing a film in the direction of Palnati Surya Pratap of 'Kumari 21F' fame.
