It`s Nawazuddin Siddiqui`s birthday today. The National School of Drama (NSD) graduate, Nawazuddin started his acting career with a one-scene appearance in the 1999 film `Sarfarosh`. Anurag Kashyap`s `Gangs Of Wasseypur` series of 2012 helped him attain critical acclaim and popularity, which he soon substantiated doing films such as `Kahaani` and `Miss Lovely`. Today, Nawazuddin is recognised as one of the finest actors in Hindi cinema.
The Uttar Pradesh-born actor came to Mumbai in the mid-90s and is now known for critically-acclaimed films such as, `The Lunchbox`, `Badlapur`, `Manto` and `Photograph`. Talking about his journey, he said in an interview, "I think Mumbai is a place which has the maximum number of outsiders. I am also an outsider there. Lakhs and thousands of people have realised their dreams in that city... Whoever has come there from the outside— someone is a superstar, a writer, a singer. They have become someone or the other."
