Nawazuddin Siddiqui is prepping up for the release of his next Babumoshai Bandookbaaz.
Nawazuddin Siddiqui, who is now a regular fixture of big ticket Bollywood films, will write his autobiography in collaboration with journalist Rituparna Chatterjee.
Talking to Mid-day about his autobiography, Nawaz said, “It traces my life from the time I resided in a village, to becoming an actor. We began writing this a while ago and will launch it in two months. No one knows about my childhood and what it takes for a farmer’s child, who lived in a joint family, to enter this field and make a name. Achieving this life could have only been a distant dream. The contribution of my parents and my village in helping me become what I am today has been immense, and makes for a major chunk of the book. Also, my theater days have been beautifully chronicled. I think there’s a lot of masala in there for people to read.”
Nawazuddin joins the list of names such as Shatrughan Sinha, Shah Rukh Khan, Karan Johar and others who have launched their biographies or autobiographies allowing their fans to know them more intimately.
