Opening up about the best compliment she received from Siddharth, she shared, “He said something that made me very excited. He said, ‘Abhi humari family main do freedom fighters honge. Ek toh Bhagat Singh and another is Bibbojaan.’ Toh who sunke mujhe bada mazaa aaya.”
For context, Siddharth drew parallels between Bibbojaan who plays a revolutionary in Heeramandi amidst the freedom struggle and his character in Rang De Basanti.
She also revealed that Siddharth is a fan of Sanjay Leela Bhansali. “I’m very overwhelmed. He [Siddharth] is a huge fan of Sanjay sir. He wants to meet Sanjay sir and literally just wants to talk to him,” she said.
Heeramandi also features Manisha Koirala, Sonakshi Sinha, Fardeen Khan, Sharmin Segal, Taha Shah Badussha and more.
