On the work front, Siddhant Chaturvedi will next be seen in the upcoming film, “Dhadak 2.” Speaking about the film at the NDTV Yuva event, the actor shared that the movie gave him the opportunity to explore his roots.

Siddhant shared, “I would love to share the release date first; I hope Karan is watching this. But yeah, we have made a really strong and rooted film. Usually, I have been approached for urban roles, but I come from Ballia, a small town in UP, and this is my first time exploring such a genre. I'm very excited; it's a wonderful script with an amazing co-actress, Triptii. I wish I could share more, but for now, I’ll let the trailer do the talking. It will be out very soon this year. Fingers crossed.”

“Dhadak 2,” directed by Shazia Iqbal and produced by Dharma Productions, serves as a sequel to “Dhadak,” which was itself a remake of the hit Marathi film “Sairat.”
