Nawazuddin Siddiqui, known for his gritty performances<\/a> and unconventional film choices, recently shared an emotional anecdote about his early struggles and how his father once asked him not to come home, all because he was tired of watching his son get beaten up in every movie.\n<\/p>\n

Speaking with entrepreneur Raj Shamani<\/a> on his podcast, the acclaimed actor opened up about the difficult phase in his career when he was often cast in small, powerless roles.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cIn the beginning, I was always getting beaten up in films,\u201d Nawazuddin recalled. \u201cIn Sarfarosh, my first movie, I was beaten. In Munna Bhai MBBS, the same thing happened. I was a thief, a pickpocket, always on the receiving end. People from my village would tell my father, \u2018Your son is always getting beaten in movies.\u2019 He was very tense about it.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

Coming from Western Uttar Pradesh, a region known for its deep-rooted sense of pride and self-respect, his father couldn\u2019t accept seeing his son humiliated on screen repeatedly. \u201cHe once told me, \u2018Why do you keep doing such roles?\u2019 I told him, \u2018I don\u2019t get anything else; I\u2019m trying.\u2019 Then he said, \u2018Stop coming here after getting beaten up.\u2019\u201d The remark hit Nawazuddin hard, so much so that he didn\u2019t return to his village for nearly three years.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

However, fate had other plans. Nawazuddin\u2019s career took a historic turn with Gangs of Wasseypur (2012), Anurag Kashyap\u2019s crime epic that changed the course of his professional life. The film not only made him a household name but also finally earned him his father\u2019s long-awaited approval. \u201cAfter Gangs of Wasseypur released, I went back to my village and asked my father, \u2018So, what do you think now?\u2019 He smiled and said, \u2018Yes, this time you did a good job,\u2019\u201d Nawazuddin recalled with a laugh.\n<\/p>\n

The actor\u2019s journey from small, unnoticed roles to becoming one of India\u2019s most respected performers stands as a testament to his resilience and belief in his craft. Nawazuddin Siddiqui was last seen in Thamma<\/a>, alongside Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna, continuing to prove that perseverance eventually silences all doubt, even a father\u2019s toughest criticism.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
