Renowned for versatile performances, Bollywood actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui is back in a completely new avatar. Whether it’s comedy or intense negative roles, he has always captivated audiences with his unique style. In his upcoming project, Siddiqui will be seen playing a Physics professor who gets unexpectedly drawn into the heart of a gripping, heist-driven storyline.
While actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui is gearing up for his grand Diwali release Thamma, it has exclusively learned that the actor is all set to step into a never-seen-before avatar in a heist film tentatively titled 'Faraar', reports Hindustan Times.
Joining him is Hollywood actor IIia Volok, who is popularly known for his roles in Mission Impossible, G.I Joe, Indiana Jones etc, who will be seen as an antagonist in the film. Nimisha Sajayan of Dabba Cartel fame will also be a part of the film.
According to report, Ivan Lacamara, the Spanish composer, who composed the music for Money Heist has come on board to produce background score for Faraar.
Director Kushagra Sharma wishes to redefine the arc of a villain on-screen that led him to cast actor IIia Volok in his film. On this, he shared, “Casting Ilia Volok opposite Nawazuddin Siddiqui was a creative decision driven by the desire to reintroduce the essence of a powerful, layered villain while breaking away from conventional portrayals. As cinema becomes increasingly global, it is essential to bring together two performers who embody depth, intensity, and authenticity.”
“Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s brilliance on screen demands an equally compelling counterpart, and Ilia Volok brings that rare combination of gravitas and unpredictability. Also, with the Money Heist composers crafting the background score, audiences can expect a sound that takes the thrill to the next level, turning the film into a true big-screen experience that’s meant to be felt as much as it’s watched,” he further added.
