According to reports, Siddhaanth suffered a heart attack while working out, following which he collapsed and passed away.
Nishant Malkhani and Siddhaanth acted in Control Room (Siddhaanth's last show) and became friends.The show ended in September 2022. A shocked Nishant told us, "We met on the sets of the show and we became good friends. We had similar interests and would often talk about astrology, spirituality and about our industry and how things are changing. He has been here more than I have, so I used to learn from his experience and understand things better. He was like an elder brother to me and a very nice human being."
Nishant further added, "We have a group on WhatsApp which has the cast of Control Room. Recently we made a plan to have a reunion at my place. Before that could happen, Siddhaanth left us. This is absolutely heartbreaking."
Siddhaanth made his TV debut in 2005 with Kkusum and now it's been over two decades that he has been part of television. He has acted in shows like Sufiyana Ishq Mera, Ziddi Dil Maane Na and Kyu Rishton Mein Katti Batti. His last show was Control Room, which ended in September this year.
