Gully Boy’s MC Sher aka Siddhant Chaturvedi, who became an overnight sensation with the movie, has also garnered a considerable female fan following. The actor recently went to a college festival as the chief guest where girls showed him their Tinder profiles, on which they have written ‘Want a boyfriend like Siddhant Chaturvedi’. The actor was caught blushing but he was also over the moon. He never expected MC Sher to become a household name and that girls across the country would be crushing over him.

Says Siddhant, “I won’t deny the fact that it is extremely flattering and I’m grateful for the love that is coming my way. When the girls came up to me and expressed their love, I just felt blessed. It is a great feeling to be called the national crush as they have tagged me but this happiness is beyond what words can express.

Extending a big, heartfelt thank you!”

The actor who was seen in the web series Inside Edge forayed into films with Gully Boy and it’s deemed as one of the most exciting debuts this year, so far. Post the Zoya Akhtar directorial, he has bagged two films, one under the banner of Aditya Chopra and another is a Farhan Akhtar-Ritesh Sidhwani production.
