Nawazuddin Siddiqui, who was first seen in Sarfarosh in 1999, will be seen as a struggling actor again in Aditya Kripalani's film, titled Main Actor Nahi Hoon (I'm Not An Actor).

The film will reportedly see him play a struggling actor in Germany who ends up becoming an acting coach to a woman in Mumbai over FaceTime.

In an interview with The Indian Express, he revealed why playing such roles has always been easy for him.

'I was a struggling actor for...': Siddiqui

Siddiqui, who has been a part of the film industry for over two decades, said, "It's very easy because that phase was very long. I was a struggling actor for 12-15 years. I'm still struggling, though in different ways."

"When you have first-hand experience, it becomes quite easy to play a character."

Film shot over FaceTime in real time

The movie was filmed in real-time over FaceTime in 28 days, presenting unique challenges for Siddiqui and his co-star Chitrangada Satarpura.

The extreme weather conditions in Germany affected Siddiqui's performance.
