Many people's dreams are fulfilled while many return home. Similarly, Siddhant had to face rejection for five years before playing the supporting role of 'MC Sher' in the film Gully Boy. Recently, siddhant chaturvedi revealed in an interview to Mashable india that when he was 21 years old and dreamed of doing something big in cinema, he signed his first film with a big banner production company. Siddhant had told, "I was 21-22 years old at that time, I auditioned for a film and was selected for that role. The workshop+ lasted for six months, so I started grooming my hair and dressing up according to my character. But later the film was closed. After this, whenever I looked in the mirror, I would see only that character. So I shaved my head. It was a big shock for me."
After the film got shelved, mother asked him to do CA
In the same interview, Siddhant told that his friends were preparing for CA exam and after the film got shelved, his mother asked him to do the same. Siddhant told, "I was really depressed, and then for the next three months, until my hair grew, I was in zen mode. All my friends were doing CA, and I had left that too. My mother told me that I should at least sit for CA final, because I was not doing anything anyway. But my father inspired me."
