Nawazuddin Siddiqui to star in Kangana Ranaut’s home production Tiku Weds Sheru

Kangana Ranaut is turning a new leaf as a producer. The actress found her lead actor for her first home production, Tiku Weds Sheru, in Nawazuddin Siddiqui.

Confirming the same, Manikarnika Films shared a monochrome photo of Nawazuddin on their Instagram handle. They captioned it, "The best actor of our generation joins team Tiku Weds Sheru… We are privileged to have found our Lion #TikuwedsSheru. Filming begins soon."

Tiku Weds Sheru marks the first on-screen collaboration of Kangana and Nawazuddin. It is touted to be a love story as well as a dark satire. The actress, who previously wore the director’s hat for Manikarnika, will also be wielding the megaphone for this project. Nawazuddin was last seen in Serious Men, which had released on Netflix. The actor now has Jogira Sara Ra Ra in his kitty. The movie also stars Neha Sharma in the lead role.

Kangana Ranaut, on the other hand, is awaiting the release of Thalaivi and Dhakkad. The former is the biopic on former Tamil Nadu CM J. Jayalalithaa, also addressed as ‘amma’ by the people of the State. Dhakkad, on the other hand, is expected to release on October 1. The actress also has projects like Tejas, Manikarnika Returns: The Legend Of Didda and Emergency in her kitty. Emergency is based on the infamous Emergency period in the 1970s under Indira Gandhi’s rule. The actress is also helming a film based on the Ram Mandir controversy.
