Chaturvedi said that at Zoya Akhtar’s house party, someone held his hand and as he turned around, they kissed his hand saying, “You have done such great work.” Siddhant recalled, “It was Shah Rukh Khan. And I was like… this was the first time I was seeing him in person.” The actor said that he had another encounter with Shah Rukh Khan when he bumped into him at a restaurant.

“I was just chilling at Soho house with a few friends. Shah Rukh sir was there and my friends said, ‘Please take us to him to say hello’. He asked, ‘What are you doing later?’ I said ‘nothing’ so he invited me to his home, Mannat. I told him that I am with friends, so he invited them too,” Siddhant said recalling Shah Rukh then said, “Voh launde hain toh hum bhi jawan hain.”
