I have grown up watching Karan Joharâs films and it was always a dream to work under his banner. And that dream came true after Shashank offered me the role of Devilal Singh in Dhadak.

In an interview, Aditya mentioned how difficult it was for him to break out the teenager typecast after playing the role of a teenager, Perpendicular, in the film âGangs of Wasseypur 2â (2012) as he was later flooded with offers of similar roles by some Indian filmmakers even after being a grown-up man. Aditya, in the interview, said,
I take it as a blessing and privilege that Anurag (Kashyap) sir gave me that iconic role. My debut film set the bar a bit high. I am yet to get a role that can match its standard. I was nearing 19 when I did GOW2 and now I will be turning 30 in December but people still see me as the same teenager! When makers come to me with similar roles I feel come-on, pleaseâŚbacche nahi hun main ab!â check sources Hindustan Times
