Nawazuddin Siddiqui to essay Bal Thackeray on-screen

19th December 2017

Known for his impeccable dialogue delivery and versatility in his performances, Nawazuddin Siddiqui might be seen in a very dominant role soon. The 43-year old actor is all set to be a part of a biopic of India's dominant and well-known personality.

Sources suggest that Nawaz will portray the role of Bal Thackeray in the under-production Shiv Sena founder's biopic. The casting is spot on and it couldn't be better than this. The veteran actor was previously seen in 'Babumoshai Bandookbaaz' which didn't go well at the box-office. It will be exciting to see the 'Raees' star to fill the shoes of a legendary politician who is admired by many.

There is no official announcement about this as of now but it is being said that it might be made on December 21 in an event in Mumbai. Earlier, there were reports that Smita Thackeray was producing a biography on the life of Thackeray.

However, we don't know if it's the same film. It is sure that Nawaz would nail this role if it comes in his hand. Let's see how the thing goes for him now. Recently, he was under some controversy for his Memoir 'an ordinary life' which he did not publish.
