Meanwhile, the first look of Nawazuddin Siddiqui-starrer Manto, a biographical film based on Urdu writer
Saadat Hasan Manto, was launched at the ongoing 70th Cannes Film Festival. Directed by Nandita Das, the film features Nawazuddin in the title role, and actress Rasika Dugal as his wife Safia. The movie also features Rishi Kapoor, Swara Bhasker, Ranvir Shorey, Paresh Rawal and Swanand Kirkire. Nandita said in a statement, “Manto’s most defining works were set during the devastating partition of the Indian subcontinent; decades later, we are still struggling to find the freedom of expression and identity - not just in India but across the world. His is a story that was relevant not only then, but is even more so now.”
