Saif Ali Khan and Siddhant Chaturvedi

Actor Saif Ali Khan, who plays the role of the original Bunty in Bunty Aur Babli 2 has heaped praise on Siddhant Chaturvedi and said that filmmaker Zoya Akhtar should be credited for discovering the new actor. “Siddhant is a star, no question about that. For someone so young to have the screen presence that he has and the acting maturity that he exhibits, he is definitely one of the most exciting talents that the industry has chanced upon. We have to credit Zoya Akhtar for discovering him for Gully Boy [2019] and Adi [Aditya Chopra] for believing that he can be a quintessential hero in a comedy genre, which is one of the toughest for any actor to crack.”
