Actor Sidharth Shukla’s untimely death on September 2 has shocked the entire nation. His friends and family members have spoken about the impact the late actor had on their lives, and how they are having a hard time dealing with his death. Recently, actor Vidyut Jammwal held an Instagram Live session to pay tribute to the actor, who was his best friend since 2004. The actors started off as gym partners in Andheri, Mumbai and went on to become the closest friends. They had often made appearances in each other’s social media accounts and hyped each other up during their success.
In the eighteen-minute video, Vidyut started with a prayer and then told the story about their friendship. He said that Sidharth would randomly call him to talk and come over at his place without any prior plans. Vidyut said, “Sidharth was my best friend because I never had another friend like him.” The actor talked about the first day he met him at the gym in 2004 and said that he still remembers what he wore on that day. He added that they used to model together and were in quite a few shows together, were they had fun. He was also one of the first people Vidyut showed his Filmfare trophy for Force too. He added that Sidharth was a person who was genuinely happy for his friends.

Holding back his tears, Vidyut opened up about the actor’s qualities. He said that he was proud of the fact that he was witty and intelligent and used that in his work. “It would be very difficult to defeat Shukla,” he said. Vidyut said that he had a different ring-tone for Sidharth and once he got a call from his saying that his song ‘Knock Knock Tera Baap Aaya’ from Commando 3 is actually his song. Sidharth had argued that his fans used to edit his videos on the song and hence it belonged to him. Fighting back tears, Vidyut said that the song is his.

Vidyut said that he used to think he was the best son in the world, but then he met Sidharth and saw his dedication to his mother.
