Nawazuddin's next: Tee for two
The actor plays a golfer in his next film and Amy Jackson stars opposite him.
We were the first to tell you that Sohail Khan had signed on Nawazuddin Siddiqui for his next film, and that Amy Jackson was being considered to star opposite him. Sunny Leone was also a contender for the female lead spot. We can now confirm that Nawaz will be playing a golfer in the film, and that Amy, and not Sunny, will be starring alongside him.
Our sources tell us that Nawaz has already starting prepping for his role — perfecting his swing et al. He tees off whenever he gets some time off his Raees shoot. With his penchant for authentic portrayals, Nawaz wants to ensure that he gets his look and game right for his golfer avatar.
Amy is also working hard on her portrayal. Her last release was Singh Is Bling, with Akshay Kumar, and she also has a couple of Tamil releases lined up.
Sohail Khan, who is producing and directing the film, confirmed, “Yes, it is Nawaz and Amy in the film.” The film is all set to go on the floors in the first week of March.
