His big Bollywood break, however, came when it truly mattered. He landed the role of David Braganza in the 2022 blockbuster Drishyam 2, starring Ajay Devgn, Tabu, Akshaye Khanna, and Shriya Saran. That one role quietly introduced him to a national audience — and clearly, the right people were watching.

Now he’s set to headline Scam 3, a series where the story revolves around the late Indian businessman Subrata Roy, who founded Sahara India Pariwar in 1978. The Scam franchise — known for its meticulous storytelling and gripping portrayals of real financial fraudsters — is one of India’s most celebrated web series, making this casting an enormous deal.

An insider revealed that makers have been quietly prepping for the show over the last few months, with extensive research to scale the story around the Sahara saga. Shooting is set to begin from May 13, 2026.

Love, Life & Viral Wedding Goals

On the personal front, Siddharth tied the knot with his longtime partner and popular Marathi TV actress Titeekshaa Tawde. The couple’s traditional Maharashtrian wedding photos and videos went viral, setting major couple goals for fans. Genuinely one of the sweetest love stories in the industry — two actors, one industry, and a wedding that broke the internet.
