Listen to this article :
Motichoor Chaknachoor is one of his upcoming romance dramas
For an artiste who is widely celebrated for his gritty films, it is interesting to see Nawazuddin Siddiqui switching gears with his upcoming offerings. The actor has recently wrapped up Honey Trehan's Raat Akeli Hai, which marks his second love story after the Athiya Shetty-starrer Motichoor Chaknachoor. Next up is the romance drama, Bole Chudiyan, that features Mouni Roy and will be directed by brother Shamas Siddiqui.
"I have always been unpredictable when it comes to choosing scripts. After doing Thackeray and Manto [2018], I thought it would be interesting to give something new to the audience," says the actor, aware that the romance genre is far removed from the world of films that he has been a part of, so far. In an industry that thrives on love stories, Siddiqui acknowledges that his next few projects are a calculated move. "It's a conscious decision to take up these films and experiment as I don't want to be typecast. I am doing many pyaar-mohabbat and shaadi-byaah films for box-office. I don't have any qualms in admitting that I'm doing them for commercial reasons. Such films are the flavour of the season."
