The actor will be spending a month in a jungle to prepare for his upcoming film
The 37-year-old actor will play the lead role in Mehta’s next. The period film, set in 1960, tells the inspiring tale of Dashrath Manjhi who single-handedly armed with just a hammer and chisel worked for 22 years to break down a mountain. Manjhi thereby managed to reduce the distance between Atri and Wazirganj in the Gaya district of Bihar from 75 km to just one.
Naturally, Nawazuddin requires some time off to get himself ready for the physically as well as mentally demanding role.u00a0“Manjhi isn’t an everyday guy, so it’s not just about having bulging biceps and ripping abs. I need some time, at least a month, to prepare myself. I’m presently shooting for Lunch Box, which will wrap up by the last week of September. Then I’ll be taking a break for this dream role,” says the NSD graduate.u00a0
