​Vidyut met Sidharth last on July 15

Vidyut shared how on July 15, Sidharth randomly called him like always and told him that he's coming home. He called the Balika Vadhu his best friend and also shared that he never had a friend like that. "He was my first gym friend and I saw him at the gym for the first time in 2004.

​He flaunted my Filmfare trophy

When I quit modelling and started doing films, he was the first person to flaunt my Filmfare trophy. He was very proud of me. I went for Commando promotions it was my first film, I saw him at a theatre with his mom. He did not tell me that he was going to watch my film. I saw aunty there and I touched her feet. She told me that Sidharth forced her to watch the film on first day. He would do such a thing. (Photo: Instagram)

​He has been raised by three strong woman

His mother is so strong. He has been raised by three strong women. I always say this when you are raised by a woman you are going to be a different man. 'Ek asli mard ko auratein hee raise kar sakti hain'. I always say this for him 'Mard toh Aise he hote hain'. He would respect everyone kids, women, watchman everyone. (Photo: Instagram)

​Sidharth's mom would cook Rajma Chawal for me

I remember going to his house and his mother is very amazing. She would always call me to her house to have home cooked food. Shukla stayed with his family, we were the ones to come from outside. She knew I was from Jammu and would make Rajma Chawal for me. We both started our careers together and both did better in our lives. He of course did better than me. He was always very nice.

​I would take his HayaBusa bike and go to meet people - nobody knew it wasn't my bike

I am sharing this for the first time. When we were doing modelling, he had bought a HayaBusa bike and he was such a good friend, I used to always call him and ask for that bike whenever I would go to meet someone. He would ask me to pick up from home, I would go there and aunty would give me keys and helmet. I would take that bike on shoots. All my friends who I have taken for rides never knew that it was not my bike. Very few people knew about this. Thank you Shukla. (Photo: Instagram)

​He argued with me that Knock Knock Tera Baap Aaya is his song

One day Shukla called me at 12:30 am and told me Vidyut do you know 'Knock Knock Tera Baap aaya' is my song. And I told him no it is my song, he said no I got to know today that it is your song but I have been listening this song for a while now. He showed me various fan made videos which actually had his entry on that song. He argued with and I want to say brother it is your song. It suits the best and the most. (Photo: Instagram)

He was very well raised by women

I have seen kids, woman, girls, men going crazy about him. He was very well raised by woman. I have used Shukla a lot in my life. Whenever I have met a Shukla in any part of the country or world I’ve always told them Sidharth Shukla is my friend. I was always so proud of him.(Photo: Instagram)

​I felt I was the best son, but Sidharth Shukla proved me wrong

I want to tell aunty the last time I met him at your house, I actually got a complex, as I always thought I was the best son. But he proved me wrong.
