Nawazuddin further said, ‘There are small and big roles in Bollywood and my quota of small roles is over. Why shouldn’t I do bigger roles now? Every actor wants to do big roles, small roles are just the beginning. It’s okay in the beginning, but every actor wants to do bigger roles. If I ask a star to do a small role in my film, will he ever do it? The actor further said that if a big star has to be groomed to play small roles, then the film should be like Oppenheimer, where such small characters are played by big actors. That is a different kind of cinema.’
