Nawazuddin Siddiqui is one of the most talented actors of the country at the moment and he is best known for delivering detailed and nuanced performances in engaging crime dramas. In a recent interview with News18 Nawaz talked about the history of crime thrillers and stated that this genre will never go out of fashion.

He stated, "If you go back to the 16th century, you will see that crime thrillers have made for extremely engaging stories. From filmmaker Alfred Hitchcock to novelist Agatha Christie, all their stories have always been fascinating."

The actor added, “Talking about plays, the genres of thriller and crime used to be a hit even in olden times. Even if you look at Shakespeare’s plays, they had elements of thrill and would evoke emotions of intrigue in the audience’s mind. Macbeth and Othello are two examples."

Explaining what makes crime thrillers so engaging Nawazuddin said, "It is the nature of our brain to generate curiosity when it sees and experiences some things. If you see a thriller film or a show, you want to know the story behind the killer’s motive and the murders they have committed. That’s why I think that thrillers and murder mysteries will never become old-fashioned.
