Sudhir Pandey Breaks Silence
Clearing the air, Sudhir Pandey dismissed the speculation and explained that there was no disrespect involved at all.
"There was nothing like being disrespected. I was launching the trailer with the team, I wanted to be there. I went to the stage with everyone, and was sitting in the front row before that. Whoever has shot this video may not have noticed that. When the announcement was made, I went up with everyone," he told HT City.

The real reason for his early exit? A packed workday. The actor revealed that he had stepped out of another shoot just to attend the event and had already informed the team about his time constraints.
"The problem was I was in great urgency, because my shoot for another project was going on. So, I came to attend this trailer launch in the middle of the shoot. In fact, I had told the production house for Ginny... that I would come with a little urgency. The reason you see me walking off is going to the other shoot, I was getting messages."
"I have a fantastic role in GWS 2 and it's a good film. That's why I got permission from the other film's team. I am thankful to them for allowing it."
The actor also admitted he was unaware of the online uproar until later, but the reactions touched him.
"I didn't even know what happened, I saw later on social media. The kind of reactions I have received from concerned people.... I suddenly feel that yes, people have noticed my work and I am quite relevant in their memory."
