Akhil Sachdeva Speaks on Being Mindful in Public

Akhil shared, “The world has changed, and artists need to be more aware of their surroundings. Situations can escalate unexpectedly, so personal security and vigilance are crucial. It’s not about taking sides—it’s about learning from incidents and ensuring better safety for everyone involved.”

While addressing the controversy, Akhil mentioned, “I’m no one to talk about legends like Udit sir. He is an icon in the industry, and I don’t think I am in a position to comment on him. I’m not saying they should be overly cautious, but they must be aware.

Today, everything is on social media, and everyone carries a smartphone. If I talk to you while looking at the camera, something gets captured, and it spreads instantly. Artists need to be mindful because they don’t always know the overall atmosphere of a situation. They don’t know what might be happening around them. So, yes, being careful is important.”
