Siddhant Chaturvedi has a stellar future in store for this year and he seems to be overwhelmed by the amount of love and praises he has received throughout the previous year for his performance as MC Sher in Zoya Akhtar's Gully Boy. Taking to his Instagram earlier today, Siddhant posted a few pictures of himself from 8 years ago when he had won recognition in one of the talent hunts organized by a local daily. The actor has captioned one of his posts saying "Sar pe phoolon ka Guldasta aur Doston ke beech khud ko “Star” samjhta. Main ....Pagal Ladka." ( With a bouquet of flowers on the head, among friends I thought of myself as 'star')
