Bollywood star Siddhant Chaturvedi recently made a memorable appearance on Indian Idol while promoting his upcoming romantic film Do Deewane Seher Mein, co-starring Mrunal Thakur and produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. What was meant to highlight his romantic on-screen persona also revisited the role that made him a youth icon—MC Sher in Gully Boy.

Judges Encourage Spontaneous Performance
