Nawazuddin Would Like To Play APJ Abdul Kalam On Screen

Nawazuddin Siddiqui will soon be seen playing a serial killer in the upcoming film ‘Raman Raghav 2.0’. The actor has played a variety of roles over the years and speculations have stated that he might portray India’s most loved President APJ Abdul Kalam in a future project. At the trailer launch of ‘Raman Raghav 2.0’, Nawazuddin negated these rumours but stated that he would be open to the role.

“I have not yet been approached but it would be great if I get a chance. He was a great personality and I would be happy if I get a chance to play him on screen”, the actor said. He will also be seen in ‘Te3n’ sharing screen space with Amitabh Bachchan who also praised Nawaz for his acting.

Talking about the compliments, the Badlapur actor shared, “It felt nice. I couldn’t come for the trailer launch because I was shooting in Pune for a climax sequence. But what can be bigger than being praised by Bachchan sir. I learnt lot from him both on and off the camera”. ‘Raman Raghav 2.0’, directed by Anurag Kashyap, will be released on June 24 while ‘Te3n’, directed by Ribhu Dasgupta, will hit the screens on June 10.
