He has worked hard to be what he is, and he gets attention sometimes even when he doesn't want it. He gets attention from all of us too. It's not like there's ever a fear because that is a different point of view and a different way of thinking which I don't have.''
Crediting Anand for giving equal importance to all characters, Karan added, ''Siddharth molded the characters and helped create the web that is holding the emotion, that is of love for the country. The Air Force is about a whole bunch of brave people, it's not about one person. So, it never occurred that he will get (all) the attention.''
Talking about the love he is receiving for his performance in Fighter, he further added, ''It's amazing that everyone feels I played it well, people cried for my character. That's like the truest form of love. Every actor or performer has a dream to touch people's heart through the characters they play, and that has happened with me. It's beautiful and amazing. I'm lucky to be a part of this film and to be given this role to play.''
