Sidharth Malhotra, who had a dream launch in Karan Johar’s ‘Student Of The Year’ (SOTY) in 2012, had been crashing with his friends ever since he arrived in Mumbai from Delhi. But now, the actor has finally rented a flat in Bandra for himself.

Revealed a source close to the actor, "Sidharth lived with his friends in the suburbs. In fact, during their struggler days, he and his friends have stayed in several areas of Mumbai. Originally from Delhi, where he lived with his family, the concept of living alone is new to him."

Sidharth, who has taken on two new projects - ‘Hasi Toh Phasi’ with Parineeti Chopra and Ekta Kapoor’s ‘The Villain’ - has now decided to rent his own flat in Bandra. The source adds, "Sidharth is excited about the idea of staying by himself. He has done up the house in such a manner that it resembles his home back in Delhi."
