I also want to work on the set: Nawazuddin Siddiqui

Actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui would love to face the camera again with adequate precautionary measures, but Nawazuddin differs on how formula films have been made in Bollywood over the years. Work has started slowly in Bollywood and like other actors, Nawazuddin likes it. At the same time, he is eager to face the camera again, but at the same time, he is not in a hurry.

‘As an artist I would love to go on set and enjoy working. However, I do not believe in rushing to work at my own risk or at the unnecessary risk of the cast or crew, "says Nawazuddin.

There is a lot of reliance on the number of Kovid-12 cases. Let's see how it goes, 'says Monto's actor, adding that as far as I'm concerned. Until then, if all goes well, I'm ready to shoot anywhere and I'm lucky for that. None of my films are based on any specific place. It can be shot anywhere, 'says Siddiqui, adding that most of his lockdown time has been divided between his village Budhana in Uttar Pradesh and Dehradun in Uttarakhand, where his younger brothers live.

It has been more than six months since the theaters closed, but most of his films like 'Gumketu' and 'Raat Akeli Hai' have been released on OTT platforms. "It's just as important to me as an actor that my work reaches people." He said. His web series 'Sacred Games' has also been well received.

What is the difference between the art of making web series and films? Especially in India, Nawazuddin said, "For years we have been making formula films. One is a hero, one is a heroine and some are singing. I am not saying that a film like that is wrong. Alas, I have also been a part of such films.

Our audience also loves cinema. But all kinds of films should be made. That should be our approach. Our big-hitting Hindi films are the best, which can be called a musical opera. "If an attempt is made to make some different kind of films, many people will not appreciate it or watch it," Nawazuddin was quoted as saying.
