Badlapur’s premise was enough for me say ‘yes’, says Nawazuddin

Mumbai, Feb. 27 -- If there has been one most painted prospect of Sriram Raghvan’s Badlpaur, it has to be no one but Nawazuddin Siddique. The actor has only been getting compliments for his rendering of the character he essayed with flamboyance. Nawaz in a candid interview to Bollywood Hungama spoke how Badlapur made him look at things.

“I said yes to the film in just one go. And the total credit goes to none other than Sriram and his narration. He explained the full film in just one line 'There are two characters who change in the end’,” he said. With so much appreciation going in his favour, Nawaz did admit that it was one of the most exigent roles he ever played since it showcased the transformation of a bad guy to a good one. “In the real sense of the word, the character that I played was really very difficult. Here is a character who kills a woman and her kid. Yet, as the film grows, there were people who were clapping for his scenes, loving him as much as they hate him. It was a very complex character with different layers. No one could actually decipher as to what was running in his mind. Towards the end, the very same chameleon character gets transformed and adopts the path of honesty and purity. All in all, it wasn't a total white or a total black character,” Nawaz added.

On being asked if he is setting up to make a Hollywood appearance, Nawaz told that he’s been getting offers. “I have been offered many roles in Hollywood, but, due to my prior work commitments, I wasn't able to pick them up. I have done a film by Garth Davis, which also has Nicole Kidman, even though I do not have my scenes with her,” he said. Nawazuddin also has a lot of interesting prospects coming up in future. While he works with Shahrukh in Raees for the first time, he will again be working with Salman in Bajrangi Bhaijaan. Let’s look forward to the exciting year that Nawaz undertakes us to deliver.
