No need to introduce him. Of course, we’re referring to Nawazuddin Siddiqui. The actor, who began as a young artist, has already established himself as a notable figure in the film industry thanks to his commitment to his craft. Nawazuddin Siddiqui has offered his fans a fantastic selection of movies to binge-watch with back-to-back projects.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui stated in a recent interview that he had intended to take a sabbatical in 2022, but it turned out that he has several projects to work on this year. On the strength of his talent, the actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui went from playing minor roles to taking the lead in significant movies. 

He is not a member of a film family and does not have the appearance of a typical leading man. Still, thanks to several critically acclaimed performances, he has established himself as a unique figure in the Hindi cinema business. He doesn’t think it’s important to look back now.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s Statement

Nawaz stated in an interview with The Times of India that he is “done” with playing supporting roles. “Even if you pay me Rs. 25 crores, I won’t play a small role again,” he said. “Ab toh aap mujhe 25 crore bhi denge toh bhi main chhota role nahi karunga.” However, the renowned teacher Konstantin Stanislavski reportedly said: “There are no small parts, only small players.” This is an interesting contradiction.

According to the actor, “money and celebrity” are the results of hard effort. Therefore, if an actor works hard, fame and fortune will come. “I believe in enhancing yourself to a level where money and fame become your servant,” he continued. “Khudi ko itna enhance kar lo, khud ko aisa bana lo ki money aur fame aapke ghulam ban jaaye aur aap ke peeche bhaage.”
