I just hope my thought on cinema does not get corrupt: Nawazuddin

One has known how fine Nawazuddin Siddiqui is in his work. The actor has time and again proved his acting skills and never failed to impress the fans, critics and the audience.

Recently, in an interview with a news agency the actor said, "I just hope my thought on cinema does not get corrupt. The kind of cinema I am doing is getting an overwhelming response - be it in India or internationally. The films are getting screened and recognised at prestigious festivals of the world, the appreciation that I get as an actor is great. I just hope this thought of doing good work continues and I do not get corrupt."

While the actor has struggled a lot to reach this level. As he hails from a small town in Uttar Pradesh he shared his experience of moving to Delhi for the first time. He said, "Initially, we used to feel awkward as it was not our culture but this is our tradition and identity in the world like folk songs, folk dance, traditional plays."

"I am not saying one should go to training school. Self-education is essential as you understand things on your own. The taste of good cinema builds in. Because of education, we get to know how to judge a good script. This is my taste and I will continue doing such kind of cinema," the actor added.

From the time Nawazuddin started following cinema that was high on content. "So maybe, I have the capability of choosing a good script because of education, the surroundings and the films that I have seen as a viewer," said the actor.

"I did not enter the film industry for recognition. I just wanted to do good work - be it doing street plays or television shows or films, be it doing small or big roles. I had not wished to become a star and that I will get recognition because I am a trained actor," he said.

"I just wanted to be busy in Mumbai, just like how I was in Delhi. When there is no work then you think something is wrong as physically you are wanting to work but there is no work," the actor added.
