Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s upcoming film Main Actor Nahin Hoon (I Am Not An Actor) will be screened at Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute, New York, on June 24, said a press release. Written and directed by Aditya Kripalani, the film also stars Chitrangada Satarupa and Naveen Kasturia alongside Ayushi Gupta, Yasir Iftikhar Khan, Meenakshi Arundhati, and Vibhawari Deshpande.
The screening will be followed by a conversation with Nawazuddin and Aditya. Speaking about it, Aditya said, “We are so excited about this. It is a film about acting, so for it to go to a prestigious establishment like this is a huge honour. As artistes, we feel bankers have it easy. I want to debunk these labels.”
Nawazuddin will also conduct a special masterclass for the students and alumni of the institute on his process and the various interpretations of the craft.
The actor was most recently seen in the biographical crime drama Costao, which released on ZEE5. He will be seen next in Maddock Films’ horror-comedy Thama, alongside Rashmika Mandanna and Ayushmann Khurrana.
