The National Award-winning actor was speaking at the trailer launch of the film on Tuesday. Director Kushan Nandy and the cast of the film were also present at the event.

Known for his realistic acting for which he has been lauded film after film, Nawazuddin also said he prefers playing characters with grey shades. “I do not like a character that is either an extreme villain or a hero. But I think that as time goes by, things are changing. These days, even heroes are playing characters with grey shades because I believe grey characters are more real. There are bad and good characteristics in all of us,” said the actor, who is very conscious abut his choice of role.
