Nawazuddin Siddiqui REVEALS he was not allowed to touch his girlfriend without permission

Nawazuddin Siddiqui, a Bollywood actor, has recently been promoting his movie 'Jogira Sa Ra.' In a few media interviews, he revealed details about his private life and made some frank admissions. The actor confessed that his well-known "permission lena chahiye" sequence from 'Gangs of Wasseypur' was influenced by his personal experiences in a recent interview. Nawaz disclosed one of his girlfriends had advised him to get her consent before touching her. It's true what you just read!

The actor claimed in an interview with Mashable India that his lover advised him to get her consent before touching her, and he exploited this in his 2012 film. Nawazuddin was quoted saying, “I had a girlfriend, I asked her if we could go to a park, looked around and it was quite empty, so I put my hand on hers. She asked me, ‘Yeh kya hai (what is this)?’ I said, ‘Kuch nahi, haath hai (nothing, it’s my hand)’. She said that it is illegal. As soon as she used the word ‘illegal’, all I could think about is police and court cases, and felt that I had committed a huge mistake.”

He added, “Then I asked her, ‘What do you mean by illegal?’ So, she said, ‘If you wanted to put your hand on mine toh permission leni chaahiye thi na (You should have sought permission)’, and I told her ‘baat toh sahi hai (you have a point)’. She then told me, ‘Tomorrow, you will feel like you can touch me anywhere. So, I told her that’s not what I had in mind. Then, she explained to me how, when you visit someone’s house, you knock on their door, you don’t just barge in. So, on one such day, Anurag remembered a story I’d narrated during the workshops.”

Nawazuddin's most recent work, 'Afwaah,' was released on May 5. Bhumi Pednekar and Sudhir Mishra both directed and starred in it. 'Jogira Sa Ra Ra', a forthcoming romantic comedy starring the actor and Neha Sharma, will be the actor's next appearance. Sanjay Mishra and Mahaakshay Chakraborty will also appear in supporting roles. On May 26, the film will be released in cinemas.
