The much-awaited Dragon glimpse has finally arrived and the Hindi version is also receiving a strong response from audiences. Among all the faces seen in the teaser, one actor who has grabbed major attention is Sidhant Gupta.
According to reports from Variety India insiders, Sidhant Gupta has been cast as Boby Sarkar in the film. The character is said to be Jr. NTR’s brother and the Wazir of the Afghan Trading Company.

Sidhant Gupta previously earned recognition through Jubilee and also appeared in projects like Inside Edge. His performances in different roles helped him build a solid fan following and showcased his versatility as an actor.
Dragon is expected to be Sidhant Gupta’s first large-scale commercial entertainer. However, many are now discussing whether he can stand out among the film’s massive star cast and leave a strong impact.
Social media users believe that the makers are still hiding several details related to Sidhant Gupta’s character. Some viewers pointed out that the glimpse only revealed a small portion and more clarity may come after the official trailer release.
Trade experts feel that Sidhant Gupta’s appearance alone may not be enough to pull Hindi audiences towards the film. They believe the film’s success will largely depend on strong content and an engaging screenplay.
With nearly a year left for release, it remains to be seen whether Sidhant Gupta’s role can emerge as a surprise package and contribute to Dragon’s performance at the North Indian box office.
