Ranveer was my MC Sher throughout the film - Siddhant Chaturvedi

Let's come back to the talk of the town your film, Gully Boy. In terms of age and experience, you're younger that Ranveer Singh in real life. How was it playing his mentor on-screen?

It was a complete role reversal off-screen because after a shot I used to be like "Baba kaisa kiya? and he used to be, "Arrey bahut accha kiya, yaar. He's been my MC Sher throughout the film. I feel like I've been lucky to work with the actors that I have. They've been so real, unlike the actors who try to hog the limelight or are insecure. Ranveer Singh, he's a star, no doubt, he's a megastar but he's a beautiful actor and he let me do my thing.

He is the one who broke the ice at our first meeting. He hugged me, kissed me and was like aarggh. He's such an amazing guy. And I feel like this is so rare because actors are very insecure thinking, "Oh uske saath nahi, iske saath nahi. But we were so happy bonding over the course of the film and even after. In fact, he's still texting me saying "Mere bina kuch sign mat karna, haan? Lala phat gaya hai tu. Bohot kamaal kiya hai tune. He's been texting me even from Berlin and he was like, "Tune kya kar diya, tujhe kuch idea hi nahi hai. So, he's been that guy to me. That's why he's a legend in the making.
