Nawazuddin Siddiqui teams up with The Lunchbox helmer again!

Renowned Bollywood actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui has joined forces with Ritesh Batra, the director of his critically claimed film The Lunchbox, once again. The actor, whose latest offering Babumoshai Bandookbaaz opened to positive response this Friday, has confirmed the news.

Upon being asked if the reports of him teaming up with Batra are true, the actor said, " That is right. I am starring in the next film of Ritesh Batra. It’s an intense subject and totally different from The Lunchbox."


The actor, who played the second fiddle to Irrfan Khan in The Lunchbox, didn't forget to add that he is playing the main role this time. "Unlike The Lunchbox where I wasn’t really the central character, this time I play the lead,” says Nawaz.

Though it hasn't been confirmed officially, some insiders say that the film will be titled as Photographer wherein Nawaz will play an amateur street photographer.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui currently has a number of projects in his hand. Besides Photographer, he will also be seen in films like Manto, Chanda Mama Door Ke, Carbon, Phobia 2 and Lion.

'The Social Reckoning' review: Aaron Sorkin’s Facebook sequel turns the algorithm into the villain

Highlights

  • The Social Reckoning revisits the world of Facebook 16 years after The Social Network
  • Aaron Sorkin turns his attention to misinformation, extremism and the consequences of Facebook’s algorithms
  • Mikey Madison and Jeremy Allen White lead the film as whistleblower Frances Haugen and journalist Jeff Horwitz
  • Jeremy Strong plays Mark Zuckerberg in a deliberately unusual performance
  • The film makes a strong case against Facebook while sometimes leaning into Sorkin’s trademark self-righteous dialogue

Aaron Sorkin returns to the world of Facebook with The Social Reckoning, but this time the story is less interested in how the social media giant was created and more concerned with what it has become.

Sixteen years after Sorkin wrote The Social Network, the filmmaker returns as both writer and director for a whistleblower thriller centred on former Facebook data engineer Frances Haugen and Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horwitz. Mikey Madison plays Haugen, while Jeremy Allen White takes on the role of Horwitz.
