Siddiqui saab, hats off!!!

After watching Sujoy Ghosh's Kahaani, you come with three prominent things on your mind. 1. Vidya Balan, 2.The city of Kolkata and 3. Officer Khan ie Nawazuddin Siddiqui's performance. Against all the plans and strategies of Vidya Bagchi and Satyuki, officer Khan stands strongly and distinctively as an antagonist in the film.... Nawazuddin Siddiqui just carves out space in your mind with his performance.

The character of of officer Khan's is on one hand and the character of Rakesh, a journalist in Peepli Live is on the other hand. Watch these two performances back to back and you will realize the caliber of Nawazuddin Siddiqui's acting prowess.

Remember in Peepli Live, when Rakesh a small town journalist of a vernacular newspaper at the end of the film raises questions to national TV channel journalist that why Natha's story is so important to media when there are number of other farmers who are dying of different reasons. The way he delivers the dialogues at that time is so peculiar and unique – he speaks to the journalist in completely oblivious to camera or any crew around – he speaks in so much of true-to-life manner!! Siddiqui saab hats off!!!
