Nawazuddin Siddiqui recently opened up about his 16-year-old daughter, Shora, in an interview, and it turned out to be one of the more entertaining conversations he has had in recent times. The Nawazuddin Siddiqui on daughter Shora segment covered everything from her passion for acting and plans in Bollywood to her very honest and hilarious opinion of her father’s dancing skills.

Speaking with Zoom, Nawazuddin was asked about Shora’s interest in Bollywood, given the attention she has been getting online. He said she would finish her studies first before anything else, but made it clear that she is genuinely passionate about acting. The Nawazuddin Siddiqui on daughter Shora conversation also touched on the fact that she has not really watched much of his work, though he suspects she may have quietly watched Gangs of Wasseypur at some point.

The part that got the most attention was Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s poor dancer comment, which he brought up himself with a lot of humour. He said Shora regularly tells him not to dance and has been fairly consistent about this feedback over time. He jokingly admitted that her honesty has completely knocked his confidence when it comes to dancing, though he added that not everything needs to be perfect and some people just want to have fun with it.

In an earlier interview with Film Companion, Nawazuddin had spoken about how Shora took her interest in acting seriously enough to seek out training on her own. She went and got herself admitted to a performing arts faculty and approached her teacher with folded hands, asking to learn acting. It was clearly something she wanted for herself rather than something pushed onto her.

On the work front, Nawazuddin will next be seen in Aditya Kripalani’s Main Actor Nahin Hoon. He has also joined the cast of Tumbbad 2, which went on floors a few weeks ago. Directed by Adesh Prasad, the sequel sees Sohum Shah return to his original role while also being the co-producer.
