“Nawaz and I share the most vibrant creative discussions. Over the years we have discussed our favourite films, music, stories. We have travelled to many festivals together. Our National Award also came together. Through so many years of creative sharing we thought it is almost an organic culmination that we now tell a story which is ours – as in the kind of films we like to watch.” Tannishttha Chatterjee told Biz Asia.
Tannishttha is best known for her performance in the British film Brick Lane. The drama was an adaptation of Monica Ali’s best-selling novel of the same name. Meanwhile, Nawazuddin is currently working on a few other projects such such as Ghoomketu, Thackeray, and Genius. His film with Nandita Das, Manto was recently screened at the Cannes film festival.
