Sidhartha Vijay Mallya (born May 7, 1987)[1][2] is an American actor and model.[3][4][5] He registered with the Screen Actors Guild as Sid Mallya, saying he chose the stage name to try to avoid being typecast in stereotypical roles.[3] He appeared in a sex comedy film entitled Brahman Naman.[6] He has also hosted an online video show, appeared as a guest judge and host on the Kingfisher Calendar Girl selection show, and worked as a model.

Mallya is the son of the Indian fugitive former businessman Vijay Mallya,[7] the former chairman of UB Group (an Indian conglomerate that is primarily in the alcoholic beverages business),[8][9] and the grandson of Vittal Mallya, who was the company's previous chairman.

He also worked as director of the IPL cricket team Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), which was owned by his father at the time, and as a marketing manager for Guinness (a product of Diageo, a large drinks company closely tied to his father's business). In 2010 he also became one of the directors of the football club Mohun Bagan when his father stepped down as director.[10][11]
