Nawazuddin Siddiqui

Nawazuddin Siddiqui's track Swaggy Chudiyan, which marks his debut as a singer, dropped on Friday. He has rendered the number along with Aakanksha Sharma and Sunny Inder in the upcoming film, Bole Chudiyan.

The romantic drama is helmed by the actor's brother, Shamas Nawab Siddiqui. It was a bitter-sweet moment for the director who is in Dubai. "When the song released, I was being operated upon for extreme bleeding from the nose," informs Shamas.

Talking about the same Nawazuddin Siddiqui mentions, "I have always aimed to experiment and offer something new and unique to my fans. When I was offered to sing for my brother's film I did not give it a second thought as I always say I want to do something new and out of my comfort zone and singing was one of those things. I hope just like I enjoyed shooting every bit of this song my fans enjoy it too."

"I am not a singer but I have to say that rapping a song is a different experience, and the credit goes to the music director. Yes, I learned the lyrics and practiced the song, but somewhere it was the music director who extracted the performance from me," he said, earlier, of his rap contribution in the film's title song, 'Swaggy Chudiyan'. The song will be used in the film in a sequence where his character is seen singing it to sell bangles.

He may be changing his image with "Bole Chudiyan", but Nawaz, ever the perfectionist, maintains a method approach even while making you understand his decision to sing: "I do not want to be a singer in the near future, but the specific rap song has raw elements that goes well with my voice. That is why they decided to feature my voice," explains Nawaz, who adds that he loves listening to the old Hindi songs.

"As a child, I used to love listening to Mohammad Rafi and Kishore Kumar. I am their fan."

Bole Chudiyan, pitched in a commercial space of the romantic-drama genre, is crucial for Nawaz also because it marks the feature film directorial debut of his brother Shamas Nawab Siddiqui, who will also look for a successful run for the film, to ensure a smooth launch into the industry.
