Siddhant Chaturvedi on Ishaan Khatter: “I want his body” : Exclusive | Hindi Movie News

In the ever-evolving world of showbiz, friendships often flicker in and out with projects. But for Siddhant Chaturvedi and Ishaan Khatter, the camaraderie has only deepened since their zany supernatural comedy Phone Bhoot. Whether it’s sharing screen space or cracking jokes off-camera, the duo has been thick as thieves — and the admiration is mutual.
Recently, while promoting his upcoming film Dhadak 2 with Triptii Dimri in an exclusive interview with ETimes, we asked Siddhant what he’d like to steal from Ishaan Khatter. Without skipping a beat, Siddhant replied with a grin, “I want his body. He’s looking very good. He’s always been fit, honestly, but there’s a glow-up on him right now.” Incidentally Ishaan entered the industry with Dhadak opposite Janhavi Kapoor which was based on Nagraj Manjule’s Sairat. It’s the kind of praise that doesn’t just come from a co-star, but from someone who’s genuinely been tracking a friend’s evolution over time. Siddhant added, “I’ve seen his muscles grow with time. I’ve known him for a long time, but I think he’s in his best shape now. And he’s killing it!”Indeed, Ishaan Khatter has been turning heads lately — from his confident red carpet appearances to his bold editorial shoots, especially after his breakout in The Royals and a string of high-impact magazine covers that showcased his evolving fashion-forward persona. Siddhant acknowledged this shift with enthusiasm: “He’s like the internet sensation right now… after Royals and the magazine shoots. And he’s pushing style and fashion. That’s something to really steal.”The praise comes not just as a compliment to Ishaan’s fitness, but also as recognition of his intentional transformation — both physically and in terms of personal branding. While he’s always been recognized for his energetic screen presence and dance prowess, it’s his recent focus on physicality, style, and sharper public appearances that’s caught the industry’s and fans’ eyes alike.
