Buddhadeb Dasgupta had a tough time casting Nawazuddin Siddiqui for his next film

Nawazuddin Siddiqui is playing a small-town guy in Buddhadeb Dasgupta's upcoming film. However, the Kolkata-based director confesses that casting Nawaz was not at all an easy procedure

“It’s about a common man. He’s someone you can’t recognise in the crowd of a thousand people. I was searching for an actor to play this role for the past two years and Nawaz is the only one in whom I finally managed to find my character,” admits Dasgupta.
