Stars are shining extremely bright for Nawazuddin Sidiqui who made a strong impact in 'Kahaani' and 'Gangs of Wasseypur'. The actor's talent is well recognized through a series of characters which started from Peepli Live.
Although he had started working in movies from Sarfarosh (1999), the roles he had portrayed were of few scenes. Peepli Live along with 'Paan Singh Tomar' helped the artist gain much more acceptance and critical acclaim which has continued through Kahaani and Gangs of Wasseypur and GOW 2.
Suparn Verma, who called him a brilliant actor, said: "When we met, we had a very interesting and emotional meeting where he just fell in love with the film. He was on board. Bipasha Basu is also very excited to have him as part of the film." Suparn is the director who is starting with the horror project, Aatma, which stars Bipasha Basu.
“Nawazuddin did an amazing job in Kahaani. Even in Gangs of Wasseypur 2, he is playing an important character. That's when we decided to sign him for this film.” added the director. "It will be a very interesting role that Nawaz will be playing," Verma told IANS.
Verma, who has directed movies like Ek Khiladi Ek Hasina and Acid Factory, refused to share the details of Nawaz's character, saying it was a secret. He just said that the actor will go into a hitherto untapped "emotional zone".
The director will be conducting solo workshops with Nawazuddin Siddiqui to prepare him for the part.
"We will be spending a lot of time with each other. We will also be doing workshops, just me and him (Nawaz) locked up. It a very intense character. It involves shedding a lot of inhibitions, emotions and exposing yourself completely. It is more about tapping into the character's emotions," he said.
Apparently the film is set in a high-rise apartment and is expected go on floors by July 18. “We will shoot non-stop for 50 days in Mumbai and Panchgani. The cameraman, who's from Denmark, will be shooting the film using a different technique.”
The movie will be another horror flick for Bipasha Basu who has had the most success record with doing horror movies and this will be a new experience for her as the movie is said to be revolving in and around the 4000 sq ft flat.
The movie will be made in 2D as opposed to the rumors of it being a 3D flick. The pairing is unusual as it will be the first time Nawaz will play a lead role and this time with the hottest actress in B-town.
