Bollywood actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui is set to take on a new and intriguing role in the upcoming heist film *Faraar*, where he will portray a physics professor. According to HT City, this role marks a significant departure from his previous characters, highlighting his versatility as an actor.
Joining Nawazuddin in this venture is Hollywood actor Ilia Volok, known for his impressive performances in blockbuster franchises such as *Mission Impossible*, *G.I. Joe*, and *Indiana Jones*. Volok will be playing the antagonist in the film, adding a global flavor to the cast.
Directed by Kushagra Sharma, *Faraar* aims to redefine the portrayal of villains in cinema. Sharma shared insights on the casting, saying, “Casting Ilia Volok opposite Nawazuddin Siddiqui was a creative decision driven by the desire to reintroduce the essence of a powerful, layered villain while breaking away from conventional portrayals. As cinema becomes increasingly global, it is essential to bring together two performers who embody depth, intensity, and authenticity.”
He further added, “Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s brilliance on screen demands an equally compelling counterpart, and Ilia Volok brings that rare combination of gravitas and unpredictability. Also, with the *Money Heist* composers crafting the background score, audiences can expect a sound that takes the thrill to the next level, turning the film into a true big-screen experience that’s meant to be felt as much as it’s watched.”
The film also stars Nimisha Sajayan, known for her work in *Dabba Cartel*. Adding to the film’s high profile is the background score, composed by Ivan Lacamara, the acclaimed Spanish composer celebrated for his work on *Money Heist*. This collaboration is expected to intensify the film’s atmosphere and offer a gripping auditory experience.
Currently, *Faraar* is in production, with more details anticipated to be unveiled in the coming months.
