Shraddha Kapoor and Nawazuddin Siddiqui to pair up for Bole Chudiyaan?

In what could be termed as some good news for the fans of Shraddha Kapoor and Nawazuddin Siddiqui, an exciting project is being planned, featuring both the talented actors in prominent roles.

Titled Bole Chudiyaan, the film will be directed by Nawaz’s brother Shamas Nawab Siddiqui. Shamas will mark his directorial debut with the project. While Nawazuddin is certainly a part of the flick, Shraddha Kapoor has been approached to star opposite him and is yet to sign it on the dotted line.


“Shraddha Kapoor has been approached to play the lead in this film. The makers narrated the story to her and Shraddha, who is keen to do some distinctive roles, has liked the project. However, she has not given her nod yet as she is busy with her other commitments,” a well-placed source reveals.

Shraddha, who was most recently seen in Batti Gul Meter Chalu (2018), has some interesting projects on her platter. She is presently shooting for Remo D’souza’s dance film Street Dancer opposite Varun Dhawan.

Her much-awaited action entertainer Saaho with southern superstar Prabhas is scheduled to release soon. She is also working on Amol Gupte’s Saina, a biopic on ace Indian badminton player Saina Nehwal.

If Shraddha agrees to come onboard for Bole Chudiyaan, it will mark her first collaboration with award-winning actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui.

More details on the project are awaited.
