Sooraj Pancholi gets Honest about dad Aditya-Kangana’s Rumoured Affair and his Mother’s Plight

Superstar Salman Khan launched actor Sooraj Pancholi in the 2015 film Hero, who then went missing from the movies for a long long time. Besides his professional front, a lot has happened in the actor’s personal life, which somewhere left him upset and he needed time to get out of it. t's been six years since Sooraj’s then-girlfriend Jiah Khan committed suicide on July 3, 2013. He was accused of severe charges about the same case, which disturbed him and left him rattled.

However, after a long gap, Sooraj is backing his comeback with Irfan Kamal’s film titled Satellite Shankar. And while the actor is on a promotional spree for his upcoming film, he got utterly candid in an interview with SpotboyE. He opened up about his court case regarding Jiah Khan’s death, the link-up rumours of his father Aditya Pancholi and Kangana Ranaut, his mother’s condition throughout the bad phase, his special relationship with Salman Khan and more.

To start with Sooraj reveals why it took him so long to bounce back to the movies. He says that he was offered a lot of films, but he didn’t get the right feel. He didn't feel motivated enough and needed some Me Time to himself because of his personal issues.

Talking of Jiah’s suicide case, the actor reveals that it continues to upset him. He shares, “See, there isn’t a day when I don’t think about it because I want it to end. I’m feeling very helpless because I can’t do anything about it. Also, none of the allegations against me have been proven. So, whatever has been written against me is false. It’s just that I have been quiet. I have stayed mum because I want the court to decide what’s right and what’s wrong. I don’t want to pass out a judgment saying ‘Oh, I’m innocent.”

Further, Sooraj also opens up about his dad Aditya Pancholi’s link-up rumours with actress Kangana Ranaut. He says, “No, that was their own issue. I don't get into that. I have spent most of my time with my grandparents. I think that was a personal matter between my parents and they have sorted it out. And every one goes through ups and downs. I'm not too happy about the things that have happened but it’s their life.”

When asked that if all the incidents took a toll on his mother, Zarina Wahab, Sooraj revealed, “It’s still very heavy. We haven’t sat down together and laughed at the dinner table in a long time. It has left a bad taste in the mouth and we all want it to end. We are helpless because we can’t do anything about it. All I can do right now is pray that this ends fairly.” He further adds that his mother is the greatest pillar of strength for his family.

He also talks about his dearest friend and mentor, Salman Khan and reveals that Bhaijaan tweeted for his film, Satellite Shankar. "I gave him a tight hug and he is really happy that I chose a film like this," says the actor.

Lastly, Sooraj reacts to the reports of him dating Brazilian model Larrisa Bonesi. He asserts, “Larrisa is a good friend of mine and that’s about it. You can ask her as well. Also, I don’t think people need to know what’s happening in my personal life. At the end of the day, I’m a human. Just the way I don’t go around asking people what they are doing in their personal lives, I don’t think they need to know what’s happening in mine.”

Talking of Satellite Shankar, the film stars Sooraj Pancholi and Megha Akash and is bankrolled by Cine 1 Studios and SCIPL. The film based on the life of Indian soldiers, tells a story of the adventures of an Indian soldier and is slated to release on 15 November 2019.
