Zoya Akhtar's directorial Gully Boy has already been termed as the breakthrough movie of the year. The movie starring Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt, along with Siddhant Chaturvedi in pivotal roles, has been rocking the box office game and while doing so has also brought back the rap culture. In a candid chat with Siddhant, when asked about the best compliment he received so far, Siddhant gushingly mentioned a trivia related to his conversation with Ranveer which is pure gold.
He 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'. 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!"
Murad (Ranveer) and MC Sher's (Siddhant) camaraderie and chemistry on-screen was one of the highlights of Gully Boy. Did it translate off-screen as well? To this, Siddhant mentioned, "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, bohut khoosurat insaan hai. I am in love with him and he used to keep mentoring me, guiding me. He made me so comfortable."
"So, yes, there was an off-screen bonding. I was the one being mentored by my mentor, my Sher, Ranveer Singh," he concluded.
