As mentioned in the report published in Mumbai Mirror, director Shakun Batra was highly impressed with the Siddhant’s performance alongside Ranveer Singh in Gully Boy and he decided to cast him opposite Deepika in an intense romantic character.
The film is set to go on floors next year and both actors will begin their character development workshops with the director early next year.
