Nawazuddin Siddiqui confesses to not being a 'regular drinker'
In an episode of Unfiltered with Samdish, Nawazuddin talked about his occasional drinking, highlighting that he only drinks a little on special occasions. When asked about his first experience with alcohol, he fondly recalled trying beer for the first time at the National School of Drama (NSD) during a celebration after a play. He said, "Main toh kabhi kabaar wala hoon. Aur bahut thoda wala hoon. Ek main hi aukaat yaad aati hai.” (I drink rarely and I drink very less).
The host proceeded to ask him when was the first time he got drunk. The actor replied, “First time I was in NSD and after a play, where we were celebrating, everyone brought beer. Before that I never drank. I was very innocent. I smoked for the first time in a play.”
While Nawazuddin isn't a big fan of drinking, he mentioned that he enjoys a bit during Holi, considering it his favorite festival for this reason. He shared how Swanand's thandai left him feeling pretty buzzed for a couple of days.
Addressing a question about marijuana, Nawazuddin expressed his enjoyment, especially in places where it's legal. He explained how it enhances his experience, particularly when combined with music.
