Nawazuddin Siddiqui has showered praise on Kamal Haasan. In an interview to Pinkvilla, he said, "Am inspired by Kamal ji's performance even today. He is such a great actor. For me, he is equal and as good as Anthony Hopkins. On any level, Kamal Haasan is not less than Hopkins for me." He also said that Kamal Haasan, Naseeruddin Shah and Dilip Kumar are three such actors whose films he has never missed.
He also spoke about his divorce news with Aaliya Siddiqui. "I can't speak about my personal issues here. But yes, I hope that I fulfil all my responsibilities towards my kids, in every way possible. Main apne beti ko pyaar bohut karta hoon. But baki personal life ke baare mein main kuch nahi kehna chahta."
It can be recalled that his wife Aaliya Siddiqui had filed for divorce. She had told us in an interview, "He (Nawaz) had never raised his hands on me, but the shouting and arguments had become unbearable. You could say though that only that was left. Yes, but his family has mentally and physically tortured me a lot. His brother had even hit me. His mother and brothers and sisters-in-law used to stay with us only in Mumbai. So, I've been bearing a lot for too many years. His first wife had also left him for this reason alone. It's a pattern. There are already seven cases registered by the wives of their house against them, and four divorces have taken place. This is the fifth one. It's a pattern in his family. You conceal a lot to avoid embarrassment before others, but how much can you take in love."
On the work front, the actor had recently spoken about getting Hollywood offers. He told HT, "Offers do come, but it's just not materialising. Aisa nahi hai ki mara jaa raha hoon, ya thappa lagega unka tab jaake actor kehlaunga. I am not dependent on that, and neither do I want to be. I want my films to go to the West and tell them that we are no less."
