‘I messaged Vikrant Massey’
Siddhant said that since he hails from ‘a very small town’ himself, he really connected with 12th Fail, which chronicles IPS officer Manoj Kumar Sharma’s life as a young boy from Chambal, who overcame poverty to join the police force. “I think I really love 12th Fail. I really connected with the film, I mean I was not doing IAS but I was still doing CA and I come from a very small town so I really connected with and I messaged Vikrant (Massey), he is so good in that and the whole cast,” Siddhant Chaturvedi said.
The actor, who was last seen in the Netflix film Kho Gaye Hum Kahan, added, “So I think with Vidhu Sir (Vinod Chopra) is I really want to work with him. I always wanted to work with him. I remember my dad sending me to watch Parinda, when his Vidhu Vinod Chopra festival was on in PVR, so I was always a huge fan of his work so. I have gone alone because my dad booked my ticket, and I watched the film, and I was just blown away, so I’ve been a huge fan of his work anyway.”
