Karan Johar heaps praise on Jubilee actor Sidhant Gupta: ‘Sidhant’s act is the piece de resistance of this spectacular show’

Filmmaker Karan Johar took to his Instagram handle to heap praise on the recently released web series Jubilee. The Amazon Prime Video show, starring Aparshakti Khurrana, Aditi Rao Hydari, Ram Kapoor, Sidhant Gupta, Nandish Sandhu and Wamiqa Gabbi among others, is helmed by Vikramaditya Motwane.

Sharing the poster of the series, Karan wrote, “A slow burning, immersive , referential tale about the post independence origin and advancement of Hindi cinema…. This set piece of brilliant set pieces and performances is exquisite and twisted in equal measure… grey rules the character graphs and the unsaid is so much more powerful than the expressed dialogue…. @motwayne is an auteur … he sets up the studio world of the 40s and 50s with such clever finesse…. It took a beat to plunge into his world and when I did … I succumbed to his magic and his technical crew of magicians.”

Karan Johar also praised the cast of Jubilee. The filmmaker further wrote, “BUT it is in @sidhant that you find the essence, heartbeat and the soul of #jubilee…. His act that oscillates between studied awkwardness and heart wrenching intensity is the piece de resistance of this spectacular show! An ACTOR is here to stay and conquer!!!!! Congratulations Vik!!! And and my love and kudos to the entire team of the show.”
