Nawazuddin Siddiqui Stars as Vengeful Transgender in Haddi: ZEE5’s Upcoming Crime Drama

The eagerly anticipated trailer for actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s upcoming Haddi ZEE5 original movie was released on Wednesday. The crime drama, which features Anurag Kashyap, centers on a network of the criminal underworld working in the “modern ruins” of Delhi NCR, Gurgaon, and Noida. Nawazuddin is depicted as a transgender person for the first time in the teaser.

Nawazuddin’s violent transgender turned vengeful criminal Haddi is first seen in the Haddi trailer. He claims, “Pata hai log humse kyu darte hai? Humara aashirvad bohot shaktishali hota hai aur humara shrap bohot bhayavey. Aur usse bhi bhayavey jante ho kya hota hai? Humara badla (People are scared of transgenders do you know why? Our blessings are powerful and our curse is dangerous. Our revenge is even more dangerous).”

The video documents his path from being a new transgender person who survived by doing small crimes to migrating from Allahabad to Delhi in order to integrate into the transgender community.

Haddi eventually attracts a lot of attention and rises to the top of the criminal food chain. He is seeking vengeance for his transgender family, led by Ila Arun, who was victimized by a strong gangster-politician, played by Anurag Kashyap, during this entire time. The movie also stars Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, Saurabh Sachdeva, Shridhar Dubey, Rajesh Kumar, Vipin Sharma, and Saharsh Shukla in addition to Nawazuddin and Anurag.

Adamya Bhalla and Akshat Ajay Sharma wrote and co-directed the film Haddi. Haddi is a crime vengeance drama that is made by Zee Studios and Anandita Studios. The debut date is September 7.
