Nawazuddin Siddiqui REACTS if he wants daughter Shora to learn from his acting; says 'Mai pressure nahin daalna...'

As a dedicated follower of Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s illustrious career, I am always in awe of his transformative journey from an unassuming pickpocket in Munna Bhai MBBS to the celebrated actor he is today. His recent statement about not wanting to pressure his daughter Shora to learn from his acting experience resonates deeply with me, as it reflects a profound understanding of life’s unique journeys and perspectives.


The transformation of Nawazuddin Siddiqui, once an unknown actor, into a widely acclaimed figure in Bollywood is truly inspiring. Do you recall him as the pickpocket in Munna Bhai MBBS trying to steal Shri Hari Prasad Sharma’s wallet back in 2003? His breakthrough came with Anurag Kashyap’s two-part black comedy crime film, Gangs of Wasseypur, released in 2012. Now a familiar face, Nawazuddin Siddiqui has expressed that he doesn’t wish to impose his acting career expectations upon his daughter Shora.

In a recent chat with Hindustan Times, Nawazuddin Siddiqui shared his thoughts about the possibility of his daughter Shora Siddiqui benefiting from his film acting journey.

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I firmly believe in encouraging personal growth rather than imposing it upon others. Just as I’ve learned valuable insights about life, I encourage you to discover your unique perspective and interpretation of the world around us. Let’s avoid forcing these understandings onto others; instead, let them uncover their own truths organically.

50-year-old actor Nawaz, reflecting on his life’s path, noted that his background, education, and personal life have been unique. He explained that his perspective of the world is shaped by these unique experiences. Nawaz went on to say that he wouldn’t recommend his daughter Shora to learn from his own experiences, as they are specific to him. Instead, he prefers not to burden her with them, preferring to let her forge her own path.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui, a graduate from the National School of Drama, emphasized his conviction in the importance of training for actors. He asserted that aspiring “dedicated” actors must participate in workshops or engage in substantial work to hone their craft.

Last month, Nawazuddin saw off his 14-year-old daughter, Shora Siddiqui, as she embarked on her acting career in London. Notably, Shora had a role in the musical production of Beauty and The Beast at the West End Stage – Theatre Summer School in that city.

Initially, Nawazuddin Siddiqui appeared in a minor part in Aamir Khan’s 1999 movie Sarfarosh, which marked his entry into Bollywood. Since then, he has delivered short performances in films like Black Friday, Shool, Jungle, Ek Chaalis Ki Last Local, Dev D and others. Currently, he has upcoming projects such as Adbhut and Section 108.
