Nawazuddin Siddiqui to star in the remake of Tamil film Oththa Seruppu Size 7

2019 release Oththa Seruppu Size 7 was said to be a film that changed the face of the Indian cinema. The movie was written, directed and produced by R. Parthiepan, and he himself played the lead role in the film. The movie had only one character and that was portrayed by Parthiepan.

Now, Parthiepan is planning a Hindi remake of his film and it will star none other than Nawazuddin Siddiqui. Recently, Parthiepan took to Twitter to inform everyone that he is talks with Nawaz for the Hindi remake. In Tamil, he wrote, “Os7-ஐ ஹிந்தியில் நவாஸுதீன் சித்திக்கை 'வச்சி செய்ய' இருக்குறோம். அதற்கான பேச்சு வார்த்தையின் போது....”


Well, his tweet means that they are planning a Hindi remake of Oththa Seruppu Size 7 with Nawaz and the picture was clicked during the discussion of the film.

The Tamil film was critically acclaimed and was also considered to be an official entry to Oscars. It entered the Asia Book of Records and India Book of Records for having a single person writing, directing, solo acting and producing a film. Well, Nawaz will surely be a perfect choice to portray the lead role in the remake.

Nawazuddin was last seen on the big screen in Motichoor Chaknachoor. Though the film received decent reviews, the movie failed to make a mark at the box office. Apart from Oththa Seruppu Size 7 remake, Nawazuddin has movies like Bole Chudiyan, Roam Rome Mein, and Raat Akeli Hai in his kitty.
