Mumbai: Actor Siddhant Chaturvedi is not only passionate about acting but also writing poetry. To fans' surprise, the Gully Boy actor shared that the first poem that he penned for a girl he liked was rejected on his face.
Recently on a chat show, Siddhant revealed that the girl of his dreams threw away his first poem when she realised that it was not an original one.
"I wrote my first poem for a girl I liked. She read it and it was very much inspired by William Wordsworth’s Daffodils (I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud). She kind of figured it out and she was like, ‘Okay, you’re a copycat’ and she threw it away. That was my first," he said.
His performance in Zoya Akhtar’s Gully Boy received rave reviews for his character MC Sher.
Following the success of the movie, Siddhant signed Bunty Aur Babli 2. In the film, he will be seen alongside Rani Mukerji, Saif Ali Khan and Sharvari Wagh. The sequel to the 2006 hit will also feature newbie Sharvari.
Siddhant will also be seen in Shakun Batra’s next, alongside Deepika Padukone and Ananya Panday. The film is a "domestic noir," Deepika revealed in an earlier interview with a news portal.
Talking about having his hands full with films, Siddhant told IANS: "I have other projects lined up. So, yes I am now jumping from one character to another and living their lives."
"Ek time tha main vela tha, ab toh bahut kaam kar raha hoon (there was a time when I was jobless, now I have lots of work). God is kind," he concluded.
