Sidhant revealed, “From Ranveer Singh himself I have heard. So, we are both Govinda lovers, I am a huge Govinda fan. The first song Zoya found me dancing on was ‘Tujhe Mirchi Lagi toh Main Kya Karun’ in the success part of Inside Edge. So, off-screen we used to break into some random filmy dialogues. Ranveer was surprised and he told me, ‘You are one of the most filmy guys I have come across’. That coming from Ranveer is huge because he is filmy and how!”

On being asked about the off-screen chemistry with Ranveer, Siddhant said, “Off-screen, it was a role reversal. Ranveer Singh was my MC Sher, off-screen. I am a new guy so I was like, ‘Baba, is this fine.’ He was so warm and guiding me throughout. Ranveer is an amazing actor which everybody knows but he is such an amazing human being too. I am in love with him and he used to keep mentoring me, guiding me. He made me so comfortable. I was the one being mentored by my mentor, my Sher, Ranveer Singh.”
