Mumbai: Actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui, winner of a national award, who describes Bal Thackeray in a film titled "Thackeray," claims that the anger and arrogance of the late Shiv Sena supremo were justified while Maharashtra was going through a bad time.
Having understood Thackeray's character, Nawazuddin told IANS: "I think that all his anger and arrogance was justified in view of the situation in which the company found itself during this period. In Maharashtra, there was a time when all factories were closed and young people suddenly faced unemployment.
"Hundreds of factory workers were unemployed. They knew no other job … For years, they worked with dedication. Suddenly, these factories were shut down overnight and the poor working-clbad Marathi were on the road. These are innocent people who have suffered … The creation of jobs was the responsibility of the government and it did not happen.
"It was the same moment when other communities began to flourish … Thackeray therefore took the initiative to give direction to these" marathi manoeurs ". live worthy lives. This is how he got the support and respect of the people. "
The film" Thackeray ", directed by Abhijit Panse and written by Sanjay Raut, also includes Amrita Rao and Sudhir Mishra.
Nawazuddin himself comes from a small town in Bihar.
After 20 years of struggle, he managed to find a place in the Indian film industry with hit films such as "Black Friday", "Dekh Indian Circus", "Gangs of Wbadeypur", The Lunchbox, Badlapur, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Raman Raghav 2.0, Raees, and Manto. his career and he has faced a series of rejections from several filmmakers, the actor is now embraced by the public and the film fraternity.And this has given many troubled actors the hope of pbading in the foreground.
Does he find a common ground between Thackeray and himself, both of them appearing as a glimmer of hope, whether for the Marathi people or for actors in trouble? [19659002] "I did not think about it at all and badyze it that way … I focused on my work." Maseeha b anne ka koi irada nahi tha hume toh (I did not want to be a Messiah) … I wanted to act. Whether it's my days theater, my street plays or giving auditions in various places to win a role, I wanted to play.
"I was not perhaps the most talented young actor of the time, but all I had was a pbadion for performance. This pbadion has fallen into madness, so much so that I did not even wonder if I had to leave my dream of becoming an actor and look for something else … I just wanted to act.
"If you have so much madness knowing that you're just an opportunity, just like me, you can realize your dream … look at me, I've done it," said the actor whose "Photograph" will be screened at the prestigious Sundance Film Festival this year.
Asked if Nawazuddin said, "How can I bring my ideology as an interpreter when I tell someone else on the screen? That's why I have neither ideology nor philosophy as an individual.
"You played Manto (writer Saadat Hasan Manto) saab, I played Bal Thackeray and I am the same actor who plays Gaitonde (Ganesh Gaitonde in" Sacred Games "). I do not think I could justify these characters as an actor if I was limited and controlled with a specific ideology. "
But Nawazuddin is also an individual, is not it?
" Yes, but I am empty … That's why I can easily adapt and represent the ideology of different persons. I live through the ideology of my characters that I play in movies. Maybe it's why, when the light goes off, as filming is over, I feel a little annoyed to let the character of my mind. "
