'Aladdin' star Siddharth Nigam to flaunt horse-riding skill on show

MUMBAI: Actor Siddharth Nigam gets to show off his horse-riding skills in an upcoming episode of the TV show, Aladdin: Naam Toh Suna Hoga, and he is excited.

"I have worked with horses before and horse-riding is my passion. I learnt to ride horses at a very young age, so I wasn't afraid. I was more than happy to be following both my passions -- of acting and horse-riding -- at once," Siddharth shared.

He had a simple tip for riding enthusiasts. "Before you ride horses, you need to familiarise yourself with them."

About his shooting experience during the horse-riding scene, he recalled: "The weather was not on our side because of the heavy rains, but we managed to get a perfect shot within a couple of takes. I am more excited to have had the chance to work with my new friend Bakhtawar (name of the horse in the show)."
