London-based Beautiful
Bay Entertainment production house has roped in Nawazuddin Siddiqui for its
upcoming project ‘The Confession of Sultana Daku’. The British production is an
adaptation of the book written by Sujit Saraf, set in pre-Independence India,
on the life of the notorious UP dacoit legend Sultana. The film is to be
directed by Heeraz Marfatia, who has assisted filmmakers such as Shekhar Kapur
and the Oscar-winning Roland Joffe.Interestingly, one of
Sultana Daku's stomping grounds was Muzaffarnagar, where Nawazuddin Siddiqui
spent his growing up years. “Nawaz has lived and dreamed the stories of Sultana
Daku since he was a child. In a way, he has been preparing to play this
character his entire life without even knowing it,” says director Heeraz
Marfatia.Nawazuddin is equally
excited about portraying the historic character of Sultana Daku in this British
Production. The actor shares, “Kids today have super heroes they look up to and
Sultana was a super hero to me. On dark winter nights when my family would be
snug under a warm razai, with candle being the only source of light and the
threat of modern dacoits in my village, Sultana would come to life in my
father's stories as the real Daku. Unlike these criminals who terrorised us,
Sultana always took a stand.” The film is written by
Shubra Swarup, who has worked with industry aces like Vidhu Vinod Chopra, Mansoor
Khan and Shekhar Kapur. Produced by Colin Burrows and Michael Ward, ‘The
Confession of Sultana Daku’ will be shot extensively in real locations, in
Sultana's actual milieu.
