Recently, Nawazuddin Siddiqui has been criticized by netizens for kissing an actress younger than him. In his upcoming film Tiku Weds Sheru, Nawazuddin Siddiqui was seen kissing Avneet Kaur, who is 28 years younger than him.
In an exclusive interview, Siddiqui dealt with the criticism and said that `romance is ageless`. He also gave Shah Rukh Khan`s example and talked about how older actors still have to show romance on screen because the new generation is `useless`.
In a recent interview with a leading media agency, Nawazuddin said, “Romance is ageless. The problem is that the young men have no romance left. We are from the times when romance was something else. We would be in love and be in `ishq` for years. Today, Shah Rukh Khan continues to do romantic roles because the young generation is ‘nalli’ (useless). They don`t know romance.”

The actor even questioned that if not for him and his peers, who could probably do romantic roles, he asked, "Everything today happens on Whatsapp, be it love, breakup. There is a reason behind this. People who have lived in romance can do romance. Who else will do it."
At the trailer launch, Siddiqui shared what made him say yes to the film, "Tiku Weds Sheru is a comedy-drama that weaves elements of real-life struggles that people go through with a unique love story. Tiku and Sheru, are very different personalities who have a common dream. What excited me about Sheru is that while personifying challenges faced by individuals aspiring to achieve success in the entertainment industry, he is relatable, brings his own set of quirks, and stands out as an endearing character."
Talking about the same, Avneet Kaur opened and shared, “While I have dabbled in a few TV shows and explored the digital space, Tiku Weds Sheru is a pivotal milestone in my career. Not only is it my first Hindi feature film as a lead actor, but I also got the opportunity to work with industry stalwarts like Kangana Ma`am and Nawazuddin Sir. Working alongside Nawazuddin sir has been an enriching experience as an actor, I learned a lot from him. Although our pairing is unconventional, the audience will see a very beautiful relationship between Tiku and Sheru. They have a shared dream that brings them together, and the film is an exploration of their love and aspirations which audiences will enjoy watching.”
Produced by Kangana Ranaut, the film is all set to premiere on 23rd June 2023 on Amazon Prime Video.
