Nawazuddin Siddiqui charged Re 1 for Manto. On Tuesday Trivia
India Today
On the occasion of Saadat Hasan Manto's birth anniversary, we dedicate this week's Tuesday Trivia to the author and talk about how Nawazuddin Siddiqui charged just Re 1 for Manto.
“Haan, maine paison ke liye films kari hain, aur aage bhi karunga. I do such films so that I can do good cinema, where I don’t get money, or which I can do for free," Nawazuddin Siddiqui said in a 2018 interview. Nawaz struggled for 12 years before making a mark in 2012 with Anurag Kashyap's Gangs Of Wasseypur. He has since maintained a fine balance between commercial cinema and films that make full use of his artistic potential. Manto (2018), based on the life of prominent Urdu author Saadat Hasan Manto, was one such film.More Related News
