Sidharth Malhotra made his acting debut in the year 2012 with the Karan Johar film 'Student of The Year' along with Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt. Before his acting debut, he assisted Karan Johar in the film 'My Name Is Khan' starring Shah Rukh Khan. Malhotra believes in taking his career slow and steady instead of being part of the rat race. Notably, Sidharth has avoided excessive PR tactics, refrained from ubiquitous appearances, and has maintained a relatively low profile.

Currently, Sidharth Malhotra is preparing for the release of his first web series Indian Police Force created by Rohit Shetty. Malhotra will be seen joining Shetty's cop universe along with Shilpa Shetty, Vivek Oberoi, and Shweta Tiwari. In a recent interview with Pinkvilla, Sidharth spoke about how he remained calm, confident, and secure in a cutthroat industry like the Hindi film industry.
