Bidita says, "I feel the only skin we need, as artistes, is camouflage. Those who are colour-blind will never see what abilities he (Nawaz) has as an actor and a person. He has never been the one to play it (a character) black or white. He has even taught me to be a chameleon and get into the skin of the character, as per the director's vision," she said.
Earlier this month, Siddiqui had criticised the bias against dark-skinned people after the film's casting director Sanjay Chauhan, reportedly said it would be "weird" to cast fair-looking people opposite the actor.
Bidita adds, "I will always cherish his ability to get into the skin of the character and become that person for the shoot."
