In the second video, Siddiqui enters a scene from Netflix's recent release 'Red Notice' starring Ryan Reynolds, Dwayne Johnson and Gal Gadot, just in time to catch them trying to steal 'Cleopatra's eggs'. When Reynold's character Nolan Booth tries to clarify the situation, Siddiqui steps back into the shoes of Ganesh Gaitonde from 'Sacred Games' and says, "I don't want the egg, I want the chicken."

Both the videos seem to have struck a chord with Siddiqui's fans. Instagram user Maniya Dwivedi commented, "If you had been a part of the Red Notice movie, the makers would have doubled their profits." Another user Sachin Kushwaha said, "Netflix seems to have transported you from Bollywood to Hollywood."

Siddiqui had made headlines earlier this year when certain reports quoted him announcing his departure from OTT platforms. Later in an interview, the actor clarified that his comments were used out of context.

"I am doing a lot of films for OTT. I am sitting here because of Netflix. OTT platforms have given us all international recognition. We get to showcase our talent there for the whole world to see. In my statement, I was talking about some production houses that randomly make anything. It was taken out of context and my intention was never to say that I want to quit OTT. I just don't want to do anything that looks like a serial," he said.
