The second wave of the pandemic is taking a huge toll across the country. In these dire times, industries across are withdrawing from their respective projects. Tollywood industry which kickstarted the year 2021 in style is now taking a back step. With many big projects halting their shooting, Nikhil Siddharth’s two big projects 18 Pages and Karthikeya 2 took a break as well.
Tollywood young talent Nikhil Siddharth took to Instagram yesterday and announced that his shooting for 18 Pages and Karthikeya 2 are halted. Along with the news, Nikhil urged everyone to stay home and stay safe in these turbulent times. He shared a picture and wrote “Staying Home… away from Crowds… Shootings at a standstill… We are all in this together… please stay safe… #covid_19 #covid second wave is Real and dangerous (sic.)”
During the first wave of the pandemic, Nikhil Siddharth’s contribution to the hospitality industry was enormous and praiseworthy. He is back again taking his time off and contributing to the needy in the second wave. The recent launch of Karthikeya 2 poster with a sanskrit line “Vaidho Narayano Hari” which means “A doctor is equal to the supreme being” is an apt description in the present scenario.
