Siddhant was also asked if he felt burdened by the responsibility of being the male lead in two big films to which he said that he does not think his responsibility has increased because the character of MC Sher, which he played in Gully Boy, it wasn't close to my personality. What he is about to do now has been his actual dream since the time he wanted to be an actor. He always wanted to dance and romance in Switzerland in a Yash Raj movie, and now he will live that dream. So, there is not any pressure. But he can say that there is a lot of excitement to explore a lot of new things.
