Siddhant Chaturvedi on breakup from GF of 4 years: ‘I had to choose between love and ambition’

Actor Siddhant Chaturvedi uncovered in an interview that he was in a serious relationship with someone before he entered the film industry. Siddhant is now basking in the success of his movie Gehraiyaan, in which he portrayed the character of Zain. Prior to entering the film industry, Zain was studying to be a CA.

In an interview with Filmfare, when asked what is that one incident that changed him, Siddhant recalled his breakup with his ex-girlfriend, whom he dated for a very long time. He said, “I had clarity when I was 20 and had a major heartbreak. I was with this girl for four years and wanted to settle down with her. I was quite sorted.”

He added, “I wanted to settle down with her and she wanted a simple life. I was doing my CA at that time but then I chose to switch my career. That didn’t go down well with her. We wanted two different things in life and that was really heartbreaking because I had to choose between love and ambition. And I chose ambition. I remember telling her that I wanted to perform on stage and will make sure I reach there. And here I am.”
