Sushant handed Siddhant Chaturvedi his winning trophy at the contest. In his recent interview with Mashable India, the actor recalled meeting Sushant, which was his first celebrity encounter.

Siddhant said in Hindi, "He was the first celebrity I ever met. In a way, it felt like a blessing. He was meant to be the first person I met, and I loved him. My mom also used to watch him on TV and loved him very much. I watched Jhalak Dikh La Jaa too; he was a complete package. I watched Kai Po Che; that role and that performance were among his best. I went to every first day, first show of his films."

Siddhant shared that he still has the picture with Sushant Singh Rajput, which he carried to auditions during the early days of his acting journey.

"I remember the photo; I had it laminated and still keep it. It's of me and Sushant standing together, and I took it with me to every audition. I even won the Bombay Times Fresh Face title," the actor added.

Mera Confidence uske baad Ufff..! Us raat soye nahi main aur mera Parivaar...Mera Naam Goonja Stage pe, wo bhi Sushant Singh Rajput ki awaaz mein! Wah!
