Additionally, Chaturvedi had an emotional experience while promoting his film Bunty Aur Babli 2 on the popular show Bigg Boss. He shared how Salman Khan’s sincere praise had a profound impact on him. “As I stepped on stage, I couldn’t help but cry.

Chaturvedi continues to make waves in the industry and was recently seen in Yudhra. His experiences with Bollywood’s biggest names reflect not just the challenges and triumphs of an actor’s journey but also the supportive and inspirational nature of the film fraternity.
