After Sidharth's act, fans started trending #ProudOfYouSidharth on Twitter. The actor knows people from the hospital since his mother is associated with them. The fan who wrote to him mentioned that her father's quartine centre was near the place.

'Balika Vadhu' actor Sidharth Shukla came in news after his stint on 'Bigg Boss 13'. His fandom grew fourfold, overnight, because of his chemistry with co-contestant Shehnaz Gill. The two became such a rage that even now SidNaaz fans cannot talk about one without the other.

On the work front, Sidharth was last seen opposite Neha Sharma in the music video 'Dil Ko Karaar Aaya'. The song was shot under lockdown, in Lonavala.
