Siddhant Chaturvedi rose to fame quickly after his debut in Gully Boy where he plays the character of MC Sher.
Now, Siddhant certainly seems to be busy with all the movies he’s coming up with. Have a look!
#1 Bunty Aur Babli 2
Siddhant Chaturvedi’s second film is none other than the BIG sequel of the 2005 film Bunty Aur babli: Bunty aur Babli 2.
The film pairs him alongside Sharvari Wagh and also features Saif Ali Khan and Rani Mukerji in the lead. “It’s been around 15 years since the original and a lot has changed since. A family entertainer, it is about aspirations and corruption and appeals to all age groups. I can’t wait to con everybody,” Siddhant states humorously. He has five different guises in the film which involved a lot of prosthetics.
#2 Shakun Batra Directorial With Deepika Padukone
For Shakun Batra’s next directorial, the film pairs Siddhant with Deepika Padukone and it also features Ananya Panday. “It’s a little weird not knowing how your cameraman or light dada looks, but I’m glad to be back on the sets,” he says, describing the yet-untitled film as a domestic noir, which captures the nuances of people and relationships.
As per Mumbai Mirror Siddhant says, “The scale is quite big and Shakun is trying to push the boundaries of Indian cinema. This film is in that space. Shakun and Zoya Akhtar come from the same school of filmmaking, but both have their own vision.”
Siddhant also reveals his experience working with Deepika. He says, “She submits herself completely and makes the character believable. I am living out my dream in every possible way.“
#3 PhoneBhoot
After shooting Shakun Batra’s film, Chaturvedi will jump into a horror-comedy titled PhoneBhoot, which pairs him with Katrina Kaif and also features Ishaan Khatter.
Talking about the film he says, “It’s a hilarious script; we had a blast during the readings, there’s going to be some solid jugalbandi between the three of us. We want it to be the next pop culture.”
#4 Undisclosed Action Film
Siddhant Chaturvedi also has an action film lined up and he admits that it’s his favourite genre. “I’ve trained in mixed martial arts and taekwondo and it’s difficult holding back from sharing the training videos. The film was supposed to be announced before the pandemic, hopefully, you’ll hear of it soon,” he says.
Talking about whether he wants to play a hero or a villain he says, “How do you know I am not playing one (a villain) in any of these films? l want to be a hero first, then, I’ll think of negative roles. l want to try new things, live all the characters that crowd my imagination. I don’t want people to slot me, I want them to experience something new every time they enter the cinema halls. The real Siddhant Chaturvedi will be discovered only through interviews. l went back to my roots. Kicking, Boxing and taekwondo helped me get in shape.“
