And the actor has already started filming for his ambitious project. A series of pictures from the film sets surfaced and the actor is looking promising in it.

Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut, who was earlier caught up with the production of the movie Thackeray, said the actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui was the only choice to play the party's late supremo Bal Thackeray on the big screen.
Asked if any other actor apart from Nawazuddin was considered to play Bal Thackeray, Raut said: "No... Nawaz (Nawazuddin Siddiqui) was the only choice in front of me when I thought of making this film."
