Nawazuddin Siddiqui is one of the renowned names in the film industry, so it’s natural that the actor is frequently approached for work. Recently, as per reports in Filmi Beat, he attended the Times Now Navbharat India Economic Conclave, wherein the actor spoke about use of Hindi language on the sets of Hindi films.
When asked to mention three things that he would like to change about Bollywood, he said that he would like to change the name of ‘Bollywood’ itself and said that ‘Hindi Film Industry’ sounds more appropriate. He further mentioned that film scripts come to him in Roman (English), but he would prefer them to come in Devnagri (Hindi).
He further stressed that the use of Hindi on sets is more or less non-existent and owing to the same reason, it affects the performance of an artist. He was quoted saying, “Hamare yaha pe sirf aise hai ki, Hindi film industry, Bollywood mein aisa hai ki director pata nahi konsi tangency pe baat kar raha hai, assistant kuch apni kheer bana raha hai, actor bilkul akela khada hua hai. Ek jo acha actor hai, theatre ka actor, jis bichare ko English vinglish nahi ati, lekin samajh hi nahi pa raha hai. Idhar udhar dekh raha hai, ho kya raha hai, chal kya raha hai, ussi character ke baarein mein baat karre hai, usse samajh hi nahi ara”
