In an interview with Shubhankar Mishra shared that his employment as a watchman does not imply that he has a poor background. He said, “Meri shakal soorat aisi thi, main gareeb toh nahi tha.”
Nawazuddin further claimed that he himself chose to work as a watchman so that he would not need to borrow money from his family. The actor said, “That’s because I would not take money from home. There was money at home always, thoda bohot paisa tha…but I didn’t want to take money from my family because I was doing a job of my choice without even telling them. My parents were always ready to give me money; they’d say, ‘Kuch problem ho toh le. You aren’t asking for any money, and we don’t even know what you are doing.”
The actor spoke to The Indian Express about the reason he does multiple OTT projects of all budgets. He said, “I do ‘small films’ because I have come here to do that only. Yes, at times I also do big films and play small roles in them, woh paise ke liye karte hai (I do that for the money). Paise milte hai acchhe usmein, taaki hum humaari chhoti filmein bana sake (you get paid well so then you can do small films).” Also Read – Nawazuddin Siddiqui Talks About His Bond With Aamir Khan, His Co-star From “sarfarosh” Beyond the Movie Set: Says “it’s Full of Mutual Respect and an Understanding”
He further added, “I make sure I am balanced that way. Periodically, I review the kinds of films I am doing. If I have done one big film, budget-wise, then I make sure I do a couple of small films. There is not very good money in small films, so one needs to balance it out. I have been doing this from the very beginning of my career.”
Nawazuddin Siddiqui was last seen in the film Rautu Ka Raaz. The movie takes place in the sleepy village of Rautu Ki Beli and it centres on a dull murder investigation which takes some unexpected turns further.
