After helping a fan on Twitter arrange a hospital bed for his father suffering from COVID-19, Sidharth helped raise funds for a young woman who was an unfortunate victim of an acid attack by her drunk husband.
In May this year, Sidharth Shukla helped a fan's mother who needed an Oxygen Cylinder.
One of Sidharth¡¯s fans contacted him on Twitter, requesting that he arrange an oxygen cylinder for his mother battling Covid-19. The boy also shared a photograph of a doctor¡¯s prescription and his phone number and location, i.e., Dadri in Gautam Budh Nagar. Sidharth responded to the tweet and assured him of getting the help delivered if he has any ¡°source¡± in the area.
One of Sidharth's neighbors spoke to the media and said he was very concerned about his family members when the COVID cases were high in Mumbai.
He even said that he can't take care of the entire country but would still like to take care of families in his building, and he did that.
Anurag Panday, an RJ, shared how Sidharth Shukla has always been so kind that he would always oblige with a smiling face if fans requested a picture or autograph. Anurag once recalled that Sidharth, who had entered the airport, came out just because a fan wanted a picture.
Jasleen Matharu spoke about working with Shukla to Aaj Tak and said he was very simple, classy and always had a smile on his face. "He was so hasmukh and even Aunty had come. He was just very lively!"
Ravi Kishan, who is in shock, said he was the 'kindest' one. Calling him a 'golden' boy, he spoke to Aaj Tak and said he always gave him a lot of respect.
He added, "He was always lively. He would hug his team, spot boys, and make everyone laugh. Everyone has only good things to say about him today."
He was very kind-hearted, and he always stood up for what he felt was right- be it women's rights or protection-he always had a very distinct voice.
Kriti Kumar Shinde spoke to Aaj Tak and remembered his friend. He said they had a nickname for Sidharth called 'Montu'. He said his energy levels were always high.
Calling their friend 'Zinda-dil', Sidharth's friends recall how he would always joke around.
