Sidhant also confirmed the same with a leading daily as he said, “I’m fortunate that this film came my way. This is also Sanjay Dutt’s comeback film. So, it ought to be special and big.” For those of you who think that this movie will be Sidhant’s big screen debut, then let us tell you that the good-looking lad has worked in movies like ‘Badmashiyaan’ and ‘Bang Bang Bangkok’, but they tanked at the box office and he was back to the small screen. The actor was last seen on the reality TV series ‘Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 9’ and was also touted as one of the hottest hunks of the season.

Before joining the world of glamour, Sidhant was training to become a pilot, but he shifted to modelling and eventually acting. The actor has only met Aditi once for a reading session and he is all praises for her. ‘Bhoomi’ is slated to release on August 4, 2017.
