In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, when Hydari was asked about Siddharth’s response to Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s show ‘Heeramandi’ in which she plays a dominant role, Hydari said, "I think Sid was very moved.

Bhagat Singh and Bibbo Jaan. "


Hydari also praised Sanjay Leela Bhansali and called him ‘legendary’ as an artist to work with.

Our in-house review of ‘Heeramandi’ reads, “In the eight-part series, Bhansali makes an effort to give each of the parallel stories enough attention but it may get a little difficult for viewers to follow at times. But he tries to make up for it with the visual extravaganza on screen and scenes filled with his trademark opulent sets, ornate costumes, and over-the-top adaa. The main story of power struggle play between Mallika Jaan and Fareedan is what  keeps you hooked to the screen until the second phase begins. And one has to give credit to Manisha Koirala and Sonakshi Sinha’s performance for holding the fort till another interesting twist pops up in the story."
