Left modeling to earn name in acting
Sidharth also won ‘The Gladrags Mega Model’ and ‘The Manhunt Pageant’ in modelling. After earning name in modeling for four years, Siddharth got bored with it and decided to leave modeling. Wanting to become an actor, he came to Mumbai from Delhi.
Siddharth had said in an interview, ‘When I went to college after school, I thought that I will do MBA like my brother did and I will get a job in finance. Then during college, I became interested in modeling and after that I bit the bug of working in Bollywood.
According to Siddharth, the decision to come to Mumbai from Delhi was difficult because it was difficult for him to make a place in Mumbai without any godfather.
One year of preparation, first film closed
After coming to Mumbai, Siddharth started the process of giving auditions. There were failures many times. Siddharth wanted to work in films, but it was difficult. Meanwhile, he got a chance to make his acting debut in 2006 with the TV serial ‘Dharti Ka Veer Yoddha Prithviraj Chauhan’.
Siddharth played the role of Jaichand in this serial. During this time, Siddharth auditioned for a film of director Anubhav Sinha and was selected for the lead role in it, but the film was closed before it was made.
Siddharth had said about this in an interview, ‘After several rounds of auditions, the makers told me that they will train us. Two more actors were to play lead roles in the film. Apart from acting and dancing workshops, workshops on improving physique were conducted for a year, but later it was realized that this project would not go ahead. Then I told the team that I was terminating the contract with them.
After this incident I did not meet Anubhav Sinha. When I was an assistant director in ‘My Name is Khan’, Anubhav definitely came to meet me, because he had to meet Shahrukh sir. After this we never met.
Became assistant director in ‘My Name is Khan’
Siddharth was quite disappointed after Anubhav Sinha’s film got canned. After this he joined Karan Johar’s film ‘My Name is Khan’ as an assistant director. He got this opportunity because of fashion designer Manish Malhotra, because during his modeling days, Siddharth had walked the ramp in fashion shows for many designers.
Manish himself asked Karan to give work to Siddharth as an assistant director. Varun Dhawan also worked as an assistant director in this film.
Siddharth had said in an interview, ‘It was becoming difficult to survive in Mumbai and then I was looking for a job. I never thought that I would become an assistant director, but I did. Life has taught me a lot.
Recently, Karan Johar had mentioned a funny incident related to the shooting of ‘My Name is Khan’ in his chat show Koffee with Karan Season 8. He had played a video message from filmmaker Karan Malhotra in which it was revealed that Varun and Siddharth used to flirt a lot with the girls of the costume department during the shooting.
Got ‘Student of the Year’ after three days of audition
‘My Name is Khan’ was released in 2010 and two years later in 2012, Siddharth’s first film as a hero ‘Student of the Year’ was released. But how did Siddharth get a chance to work under the direction of Karan Johar in his very first film?
Actually, on the set of ‘My Name is Khan’ everyone knew that Siddharth had to become a hero. When Dharma Productions announced the film ‘Student of the Year’, people advised Siddharth to audition for it. Siddharth did the same.
The audition lasted for three days and Siddharth was selected for the lead role in the film. Till then Siddharth had no idea that Karan Johar himself would direct this film.
Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt also made their debut with the film. Siddharth played the role of Abhimanyu Singh in it. The film was a hit and did a business of Rs 109 crore at the box office. Its budget was 7 crores. For this, Siddharth also received a nomination in the Filmfare Leading Debut Male category.
Sid did not release any film for a year after the release of ‘Student of the Year’. Then in 2014, he appeared in the romantic comedy film ‘Haseen Toh Phasee’ with Parineeti Chopra. After this, Sid received a lot of praise from the film ‘Ek Villain’.
‘Kapoor and Sons’ released in 2016 also proved to be a hit which made Siddharth’s star shine in Bollywood. However, Sid could not do anything special in the films that followed. The films flopped or had average collections.
Siddharth has received the highest praise in his career so far from the 2021 film ‘Shershaah’. This film was a hit despite being released on OTT. Siddharth played the role of martyr Captain Vikram Batra in the film. Kiara Advani played the role of his girlfriend Dimple in this film.
Sid proposed to Kiara in Italy
It is believed that Siddharth and Kiara grew closer during the shooting of ‘Shershaah’, but in reality it is not so. Their first meeting was in 2018 at the wrap-up party of the film ‘Lust Story’. Siddharth had reached here on the invitation of Karan Johar, while Kiara was the heroine of this film.
After the very first meeting, both of them crashed the party and left the place. After this both were seen together many times. However, both of them described their relationship as only friendship. Meanwhile, the shooting of the film ‘Shershaah’ took place due to which both of them came closer.
Recently, when Siddharth Malhotra reached the show Koffee with Karan-8, Karan Johar made some revelations about his relationship with Kiara. He had said, ‘Once Siddharth had fever, despite this he came to my party. He had a fight with Kiara, but two hours later Kiara was feeding him with her own hands.
According to Karan, after seeing this bonding between the two, he knew that they would get married. Finally Siddharth and Kiara got married on 7 February 2023 in Rajasthan. In Koffee with Karan-8, Kiara had told that Sid had proposed her in Italy.
Shifted to an apartment worth Rs 70 crore after marriage
After marriage, Kiara and Siddharth shifted to a sea-facing apartment in Juhu, Mumbai. The interior of this house has been designed by Shahrukh Khan’s wife Gauri Khan. Its price is said to be Rs 70 crore. Apart from this, Siddharth also has a luxury bachelor pad in Pali Hill area of Mumbai where he used to live before marriage.
