According to Nawazuddin, becoming a serious actor does not happen overnight. An prospective actor should attend workshops in any profession, as competence is crucial. Nawazuddin also added,
“Mera belief hai training pe. It is not ki aap bas uth ke aa gaye. Agar koi serious actor banna chahta hai, wo koi to workshop karega, choti ya badi, ya fir kuch na kuch serious kaam karega na? Aisa hona bahut zaruri hai kyunki har cheez ki ek expertise hoti hai. Born actor jaisa kuch nahi hota. Har cheez ki expertise hoti hai, main aapka kaam nahi kar sakta, aap mera kaam nahi kar sakte. Uske liye training ki zarurat hai.”
Nawazuddin Siddiqui revealed that he does not force his daughter to follow his footsteps in performing
Nawazuddin went on to say that, despite being an actor, he has never burdened his daughter and has instead allowed her to forge her own path. He emphasized that it is critical for her to have an independent viewpoint on life, and he appreciates and supports her decisions while acknowledging that his experiences are unique, and he cannot expect Shora to have the same. In his own words,
“Main kisi ke mind pe pressure nahi daalna chahta ki maine ye seekha to tum bhi ye seekho. Wo duniya ko apne nazariye se dekh rahi hai aur wo dekhna zaruri hai. Uska khud ka interpretation hona zaruri hai life ka, thopa hua nahi lagna chahiye. Mera experience, training aur life alag hai. Main jis nazariye se duniya ko dekhta tha, mera experience us hisaab se hua. To mera Shora ko bolna ki mere experience se seekh bahut galat ho jayega. Wo pressure main nahi daalna chahta hun uspe.”
Nawazuddin Siddiqui states that his family background was not poor
Nawazuddin emphasized to Shubhankar Mishra a few days ago that his initial employment as a watchman did not imply that he came from an impoverished background. Nawazuddin went on to say that, while his parents were eager to lend him money, he did not feel up to the task and so burdened them. In his own words,
“Meri shakal soorat aisi thi, main gareeb toh nahi tha. 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 le. You aren’t asking for any money and we don’t even know what you are doing.”
