Recalling how an excited Ranveer sent him a long voice note on WhatsApp after watching the film at the Berlin Film Festival, the actor said, "Gully Boy was at Berlin Film Festival. I could not go… Limited crew was allowed. So, after our premiere, I got a voice note from Ranveer at around 2-3 am. ‘You killed it! Standing ovation. You have no idea your life is going to change!’ He was so happy for me, and had seen the film for the first time."

Further adding about Ranveer's excitement that suggested something magical, Siddhant added, "It was a long voice note and he kept saying, ‘What have you done, this is iconic, what a character.’ The first time I heard about my film was from him, and I knew that some magic has happened,”

The actor recalled how he along with his family had arrived for the Mumbai premiere of the film and Alia met them in the elevator. “Just when the doors were about to close, Alia Bhatt comes in with her bodyguard. My mother and brother’s jaws dropped. When the lift door opened, she turned and said, ‘You know your life is going to change right?’ It was cinematic, because she said this and walked off. Then, after the media screening, there was a wave of journalists, fans. My dad had tears; he was crying during the entire film! He saw the film 25 times; he watched it every day in some theatre,”
