| Nawazuddin Siddiqui |
Bollywood actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui is a gifted actor. He
has paved his way into the movie industry with hard work and willpower and is
now ruling all over it. Nawazuddin will be seen in a negative role in the forthcoming
web series Sacred Games, which is based on Vikram Chandra’s novel by the same
name.
In a media conversation with a daily, talking about Sacred
Games and he revealed, "Vikramaditya Motwane and Anurag Kashyap, who are
the directors, had narrated the script to me earlier. They had told me how they
wanted to create the character and take it ahead. During the shoot, I used to
make someone sit and read out the novel to me."
Speaking about the character Ganesh Gaitonde, he revealed,
"See, if you want to categorize him, then he’s a gangster. But I don’t
think of such tags. He comes to Mumbai from a small village in Konkan with big
dreams. Maybe his path is not right because his surroundings have been like
that. He manages to escape unhurt from a lot of things, so he starts believing
that he’s invincible. That’s how I have approached the role. I didn’t play him
with a certain attitude just because he’s a gangster. That’s how I approach
every character."
Speaking about what appeals him to play dark or grey
characters, Nawazuddin revealed, "Black or white characters have no
shades. It’s the grey characters who are colourful. White characters - the
heroes - have nothing to do. They just keep standing like sticks, while the
others around them adorn the film. There is no fun in that. Hollywood actors Robert
De Niro and Al Pacino have mainly played characters with grey shades. That’s
where you get to see what the actor is all about. Even I am selfish. I prefer
grey characters because there is more scope in them."
