When Nawazuddin Siddiqui talked about how portraying Manto made him more honest and frank, it was a revelation.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui is one of his generation’s most well-known actors. The actor has progressed from bit parts and extras to leading roles in award-winning films and commercial blockbusters over the course of his long career. As he celebrates his birthday—appropriately at the Cannes Film Festival—a look back at when the actor revealed how his immersive acting process can be a stumbling block at times.

In his biopic Manto, Nawazuddin played the controversial Urdu writer Saadat Hasan Manto. Nawazuddin attempted to imbibe Manto’s qualities and attributes in order to get into the skin of his character. In a previous interview, the actor admitted that this backfired because he became too blunt and truthful in his real life and paid the price. Around the time of the film’s release, Nawazuddin was involved in a number of controversies, the majority of which stemmed from his tell-all memoir.

“You are not a computer,” he told The Times of India in an interview. So playing a character like Manto has an effect on you, and you must try to break free from it because you must move on to the next character, the next project, where you must begin from scratch. For the next 10-12 days after the shoot, I was still in the same emotional state. ‘This character needs to get out of my head soon, or else it will be bad for me,’ I told Nandita (Das, the director). Because I had become too honest and truthful at the time. Us waqt itna zyada sach bolne laga tha ki maine apni band bajwa li

The actor is currently in Cannes as part of an Indian delegation led by Union Minister for Information and Broadcasting Anurag Thakur, where he walked the red carpet. “Representing India is always special,” Nawazuddin told Hindustan Times about his birthday celebrations in Cannes. It doesn’t matter if it’s my birthday or another day. Because Cannes is held around the same time every year, I’ve spent five to six of my birthdays there. I am not one of those people who celebrates birthdays. It’s like any other day.”

Malaika Arora says she is ready to move on as she reacts to Arjun Kapoor’s ‘I am single’ remark. 
Malaika Arora and Arjun Kapoor parted ways this year after being together for several years.

Now, in an interview with Etimes, Malaika has reacted to the Singham Again actor’s statement.

Malaika Arora on Arjun Kapoor’s ‘I am single’ statement

Malaika Arora called Arjun Kapoor’s viral ‘I am single’ statement his prerogative and said, “I am a very private person, and there are certain aspects of my life which I don’t want to elaborate on much. I will never choose a public platform to talk about my personal life. So, whatever Arjun has said is entirely his prerogative. I just want to say that, yes, it has been a very trying year for various reasons. I think it is time for all of us to move on from whatever transpired in the year that went by. I am ready for the New Year and a new start in my life.”

Malaika Arora and Arjun Kapoor started dating in 2018. However, they did not talk much about their relationship in public. They regularly shared romantic pictures from their vacations. Even after their breakup, when Malaika Arora’s father passed away, Arjun Kapoor was there to support the actor during the difficult time. Talking about the same, Arjun Kapoor told Raj Shamani in a recent interview, “In life, without going into one instance, I’d like to say when what happened with Khushi, Janhvi, there is an instinct and impulse. In this case, also, there is an instinct and impulse. If I formed an emotional bond with somebody, I’d always lie to believe that I’d be there regardless of the good and the bad…I’m not somebody who is doing this for all and sundry. If I feel an emotion with someone, it will be there for life.”
