The Serious Men actor furthermore spoke with us about exploring challenging and diverse roles as an actor in his glorious filmography. Nawazuddin Siddiqui said, “I have a habit of pressure now. Now I myself don't have fun if I don't do diverse roles. I'm playing the role of a typical hero, doing love stories as the main lead then there's Heropanti 2 so there are a different set of characters with each film. Something is a love story, something is a supernatural thriller, then there's a festival film No Land's Man which is very close to my heart. So, I'm working on different movies right now which is a challenge and also is a lot of fun.”
