When you’re someone who has given standout performances in films like Black Friday, Gangs of Wasseypur, Raman Raghav 2.0, The Lunchbox, Manto and in an iconic show like Sacred Games, you really cannot blame people for talking only about your acting skills. Such is the case with actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui. Siddiqui’s talent on the silver screen is appreciated by one and all, so much so that he’s even received a nod from legendary cinema critic, Roger Ebert. However, what many do not talk about is the fact that when he makes an effort, Siddiqui sure does have style. It’s not so much what he wears but how he wears them that makes him the dark horse of fashion in Bollywood. From tapori to tuxedo, Siddiqui can rock them all. Don’t believe us? See for yourself.
1. Let’s start with one of our favourite looks – this grey three-piece suit is a typical Siddiqui look. He’s aced the blue steel look in this one.
2. Snow, denims, shades and a long, black overcoat. If he were an assassin, we’d gladly ask him to mentor us.
