However, off late, Nawazuddin Siddiqui has been in the news for the wrong reasons, and recently, he faced the wrath of Shah Rukh Khan fans. It all started with an interview where fans thought Nawazuddin Siddiqui took an indirect dig at Shah Rukh Khan.
In the interview, Nawazuddin Siddiqui was asked about being typecast in Bollywood. And to this question, he said: "Maine itna ziddi aadmi hoon, kabhi apne aap ko typecast hone nahi dunga. Typecast ka matlab hota hai film ke hero, jo 35 years tak iss (imitating SRK’s signature pose) tarah ki cheezein karte rehte hain. Is maamle mein bahut ziddi hoon mein."
Immediately, this particular clip went viral, and SRK fans criticised Nawazuddin Siddiqui for making such a comment.
In the latest entertainment news, Nawazuddin Siddiqui has now come up with an explanation, saying he never mentioned SRK.
In an interview with Zoom, Nawazuddin Siddiqui said: "Maine unke baare me baat he nahi ki. Aur jo Shah Rukh Khan hai, wo zamana hai yaar, wo daur hai. Main jab hero ki baat kar raha hoon, to mai as a metaphor baat kar raha hoon. Me Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan ki baat nahi karunga, woh zamana, daur hai wo. Uss daur me hum log rehte hain. To main agar koi baat kar raha hoon, unki baat nahi kar raha main."
"Ofcourse, I love him. Maine kaam kiya hai unke saath, wo mujhe pyaar karte hain, me unse aur bhi pyaar karta hoon," he added.
