Prateik is one of the most honest guys in the industry, who speaks his heart out and admits to his mistakes. The guy unfortunately has faced a lot of turbulence in his life, wishing him happy sunny days ahead!

[@wanderer847]

Takes balls to admit the darkness of ones past honestly that phase has made you more mature than ever keep ur head high mate 💪💪💪

[@badboy5168]

Hi

[@ngolddays1296]

This dude is brutally honest which is a rare quality. I think its 1st time Siddharth doesn't need to make hard attempts to keep conversation going. But great video again Sid....Keep it up..Waiting for your next video.

[@Mashable_India]

Thanks a ton

[@samsuperantiques9958]

Don't judge by one hour 😜🙂 interview 😅😍😅

[@ankitasingh3689]

He seem to be quite innocent and no filter person. Don't know when to stop, while divulging details and shares way too much, but that really shows that he is not image concious and owns the mistake he has made in his life, which is not easy when you are in showbiz

[@shreyainde217]

Love how he said in the very start,"HELLO SID"!Loved him acknowledging Sid by his name and also saying Sid throughout the episode!Few habits we all could inculcate in our conversations with people! 🙌

[@divyeshpatil9908]

His mother was top class actress. She gained so much popularity in marathi and hindi movies in very short time. It's so sad she died so early. She always remember as one of the finest actress in India ☺

Someone who has been through such phase of Addiction can only relate with his story. People might call it another nepotism story but it takes balls to learn the craft and build up the talent. He has got one of the finest delivery and adds realism to any character he plays as compared to other star kids 👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️...

[@Pratik-tk6ts]

Ekk Deewana Tha is my all time favourite movie and I can't sleep without listening to Hosanna song at night ❤️ Prateik and Amy looked so good together 😊

[@aditimane3349]

I feel very sad when it comes to his past 😭 he is so honest ... In his old interviews I can understand his pain but now he improved a Lot 😊😊 I am wishing you all the best pratik ❤️ and I can't forget ur performance in jane tu ya Jane na and ekk tha Deewana Love you pratik ❤️

[@MuralidarSRamachandran7789]

Prateik is an underrated actor for sure. Even in his bad choices, most of them at least, his performances have not been the one to blame. Would love to see more of this man. Also, he'd do a really good voice!

[@ashtamidevi2315]

Yep!

[@karthikmurali8967]

It requires guts to accept your past mistakes overcome those challenges. This person is class personified,🙂 somehow I feel he is most underrated artist . Bollywood need to broaden their horizon and need to give ppl like prateek more chance

[@Mashable_India]

that's true

[@prakasharjunbodwade]

Bro, it requires money, paisa hai to no one will talk about your dirty past

[@dreamsolace]

His performance in Jane Tu Ya Janay Na was supreme. Highly talented actor 👏

[@aishwaryabalodi8357]

Ho saana song is love

[@studio9474]

Man so freakin underrated, he jus does not get enough credit for that role

It’s bombayite too

Bro Bhai pathan m kyu nhi

[@lipikagoswami2817]

When people talk about nepo kids , No one can be better than Prateek with such amazing and talented parents, Smita Patil was a legend and Raj Babbar was a star , this Man did not get his due. The industry is ruthless as well as the public who will not take anything on its face value. He is super talented and should have tried harder for his place. Love his work .

[@sanikaalurkar2540]

It really takes guts to speak up about a lot of things he has gone through. His parents and family were very popular renowned but he i so down to earth and so calm composed and innocent! Loved the way he treated sid like a friend than that of a person taking up his interview and he is only here to answer. Also sid i started watching bombay journey as recommendation but i am now hooked its AMAZING to see you grow everyday

[@sialo1]

Good dude, a dude's dude. Sounds like he's been thru sh*t, took it on the chin and moved past it. Loved the Bandruh-Boi accent, brought back memories and made me smile. It's hard to have legacy foisted upon oneself, especially when the ones responsible for the legacy aren't around to raise you. Here's hoping he can rise up now and stay up.

[@deepamwaichalkar8540]

I'm fan of his since "Ek deewana tha". Loved his performance in Chhichhore ❤️❤️. I love him ❤️❤️

[@PrateekAndRuchi]

He's humble and cool. Just a regular honest guy. No bullshit

[@yashthanawala5857]

Highly talented actor!! I cant believe he was gone for so long after Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Naa!! Welcome back to the industry Prateek!! Love his work!! More power to him💪💪

[@mananvashisht7730]

dude , this guys has swag written all over him.. he is so chilled out , the boy next door kinds.... iam not a fan boy ever for anyone other than SIR SACHIN TENDULKAR AND Amitabh, Sir but I would love to hang out with him for a bucket... Great Episode, Sid boy... kudos!!

[@Shevindeez]

His voice, Aahhh! 🤤 Watched '4 more shots please' majorly for him! I thought he'd be shy and introverted in real life, was delightfully surprised to see the Bandra-ness and a lil parsi touch in him. Enjoyed his frankness, especially respectfully talking about Amy. He deserves great roles.

[@upamarai8878]

I loved his mom! She had a different energy about her. Have sent him multiple dms about it 🤪 ... Talk about desperation.. Love his acting. I have watched "Eak Deewana Tha".. more than 10 times... I wish he goes places from now on..

[@passangtsekey9289]

I don’t know why he was my favorite actor and my crush when I was in teens. I don’t usually have favorites.

[@achakajalji]

I studied in Andrews, and to see it again here after sometime is so overwhelming! ❤

[@MrMishal03]

Ditto for me. I was in Arya Vidya Mandir

[@piero17y65]

How was Andrew's as a college?

[@achakajalji]

@@piero17y65 Absolutely beautiful! I graduated in 2017, and I still miss it! It can be overwhelming if you don't like being alone and uncomfortable with your own company, it's fun.

[@Befikra9]

Iss bande ko villian ka role do bhai pura fadega seriously too underrated man he deserves more 🙏

[@studio9474]

Yooo ! Jaane TuYa Jaane Na was and is in my opinion Prateek Babar’s best performance. Well written character and the only reason why it worked so well seems to be the fact that Prateek didn’t put any effort and jus played the character like a normal person which is what the character needed.

[@sujay4533]

His mother was one of the greatest indian actress of her time. She played challenging role at time when industry was male dominant.

[@danceforever5940]

Smita Patil , one of the most Talented Actress . Khupch chaan watala Prateik cha interview baghun

[@FN-db4hn]

Prateik unintentionally selected movies with good content and in which he made an impact but I guess after Ek deewana tha and Issaq he had low in life and bad habits damaged his career. Prateik is such an honest guy.. may he have success in life and better future ahead

[@Letsbetrue]

Loved the energy on this one . Prateik is so down to earth and easy to connect with . Sid seemed to have an easy going way of connecting with him too. ❤️

[@kkobsessed]

Man i love ek deewana tha. 🥺 Its one of my most favorite movies.

[@suisenshirasaki8298]

He seems chill and fun. His experience of simply having stumbled into acting echoes ARK's, who landed a gig VJing or should we say, stumbled into it and his acting career was also incidental, at least in the early days. This is what having Prahlad Kakkar for a godfather or Siddharth Roy Kapur as a brother gets you. I'm not grudging the access they had but for people on the outside trying to get a foot in the door, it's honestly a lot harder because you don't have the Prahlads and Siddharths saying 'ek larka hai' connecting you to the right people. Both the actors are oblivious of their privilege. 'Strugglers' would kill for such referrals. Unfortunately, they don't have the ease of stumbling into things. They also don't have the luxury of neglecting academics and need a degree as a backup given the astronomically low odds of ever truly making it.
