In the 1997 action-comedy starring Salman Khan, Shakti played the comedic role of Rangeela. In the David Dhawan directed film, Siddhanth also featured in a few scenes as "junior totla" when he was in the seventh grade.
The actor says for the upcoming remake, which has Varun Dhawan in double roles, he did have a conversation with the director.
"I was going to be a part of it ('Judwaa 2'), I would have loved to be. But I didn't want to play my father. I wanted to play the negative role in the film. David uncle and Varun are like family, so we spoke about it.
The actor says he vividly remembers the shoot of "Judwaa" at film city where his very first take was approved.
Currently, the actor is gearing up for the release of "Haseena Parkar". The biographical-crime-drama, directed by Apoorva Lakhia, will see him co-star with his sister, Shraddha Kapoor.
Siddhanth, however, says he might miss attending the film's premiere as he would be busy shooting JP Dutta film, "Paltan".
"I am going to Leh Ladak this September. I don't know if I am going to be here for my film's premiere. I will be probably shooting there, it is a big film.
Lakhia's biopic on underworld don Dawood Ibrahim's sister Haseena Parkar is set to release on September 22.
