Speaking at a press meet, the Kalank actor had opened up on Sidharth's popularity and said, "In Borivali we were shooting... First there were a couple of aunties, and I didn't pay much attention thinking there was a kids' market nearby. Then some school kids came calling Sidharth's name, that's when I realised there's going to be a problem."

Helmed by Shashank Khaitaan, Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania revolves around a small-town girl who heads to Delhi to find a designer outfit for arranged wedding but ends up finding love instead. The film was a commercial success at the box office.

Today heaven has gained a star and we have lost one. My deepest condolences to the family and loved ones."
