It’s back to the beginning for Tiger Shroff. The actor, who made his Bollywood debut with `Heropanti` in 2014, was shooting for the sequel to the actioner earlier this year. While Tara Sutaria plays his love interest in the Ahmed Khan-directed venture, mid-day has learnt that there is an addition to the cast. With this film, Nawazuddin Siddiqui will return to masala movies after his niche offerings, `Raat Akeli Hai` and `Serious Men` last year.
“In all likelihood, Nawaz and Tara will play siblings in the movie. While Tiger filmed a significant part of the first schedule in Mumbai before the state-wide restrictions were levied, Nawaz is expected to join in the next schedule. Tiger will juggle this action thriller with the shoot of Baaghi 4,” says a source. The project marks Siddiqui’s reunion with Shroff after the dance film, `Munna Michael` (2017).
