Sidharth Malhotra turns poker boy
Mumbai, Sept 8 (IBNS): Sidharth Malhotra's got a new fascination and that is playing poker.
The actor, who did not know anything about the game, was introduced to it by his team on the sets of Kapoor & Sons.
Says a source, “The entire team was camping in Coonoor and after pack up everyday, they didn’t have much to do because there weren’t many options available. So every evening, the entire unit sat for a round of poker.”
Sidharth had no clue about how to play the game. “Everyone taught Sidharth how to play the game and he soon picked it up,” reveals the source.
Ever since then, the actor has got inclined towards the card game. So much so, that he keeps looking out for other players to start a game.
“Sid has got addicted to the game and whenever he has a circle of friends around, he keeps looking for a partner for the game,” the source said.
Even after the shoot of his upcoming film, Baar Baar Dekho, Sid has been looking out for unit members to play a round. But to his disappointment, not many on the sets know the game.
