I enjoy any character that challenges me," said Nawazuddin Siddiqui, who plays a small-town cop investigating a sudden murder in a village nestled in quaint hills in the "Zee5 Original', 'Rautu Ka Raaz. Directed by Anand Surapur, it was the lackadaisical pace of the thriller that attracted him. Known for his outstanding performances in films like 'Kick, Photograph, 'Manto', 'Serious Men', 'Haddi', 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' and 'Raman Raghav 2.0, Nawazuddin has never been overly concerned about his image.
He is passing on similar values to his daughter, Shora, who is keen on following in her father's footsteps. The versatile actor speaks to 'Millennium Post' on thrillers, supporting small films and more. Excerpts: In 'Rautu Ka Raaz', you play a cop investigating a sudden murder in a quaint hill station. The film's thriller pacing is quite different from the fastpaced suspense we often see today.
I chose to do this film because of its unique pace. Unlike the action-packed, fast-paced thrillers we're accustomed to, 'Rautu Ka Raaz' unfolds slowly. This sleepy town rarely sees public transport, with people walking from one hill to another. The atmosphere and the characters are different. Crime is virtually unheard of here.
Suddenly, after 15 years, a murder occurs and the police department, unfamiliar with such incidents, has to learn the process of investigation gradually. I was drawn to the premise and the setting. In an age where our attention span is so short, being part of such a project felt refreshing and necessary.
As a cop in 'Rautu Ka Raaz', which is presently streaming on 'Zee5', you seem to be dealing with personal struggles.
