Actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui recently shared his honest opinion about actors and how society sees them. In a recent interview, the 'Sacred Games' actor said he doesn't see anything wrong with actors dancing at weddings or private events for big money. In fact, he said he would do the same if he got the asked if he would dance at a wedding if given the chance on All About Eve YouTube channel, he replied, 'Yes, why not? What's wrong with it? It's a part of our profession; people complain that actors dance at weddings, but what's the problem? At the end of the day, we are all 'bhands' (entertainers). Did you know that in the past, 'bhands' wouldn't be allowed to mingle in polite society? They were seen as unfit; they were seen as people who didn't have any ideologies or beliefs, bad influences. They were kept in tents outside villages. They would only be allowed to enter to perform, and then they'd be sent right back out.'advertisementOther Bollywood stars like Ranveer Singh and Akshay Kumar have also spoken about this. On the show, 'Koffee with Karan', Akshay joked that Ranveer keeps dancing at weddings so much that even the bride and groom have to wait for him to stop. Ranveer said he learned this from Akshay, who once told him, 'Shaadi hai, main naach raha hoon; birthday hai, main naach raha hoon; mundan hai, bachcha ro raha hai, main naach raha Hoon (It's a wedding, I'm dancing; it's a birthday, I'm dancing; it's a munda ceremony, the child is crying, I'm dancing).'

Nawazuddin Siddiqui Says Actors Are ‘Bhands' At Heart, Has No Issue Dancing At Weddings
Last Updated: Nawazuddin Siddiqui opens up about his uncomfortable experience shooting Emotional Atyachaar and shares his candid thoughts on actors dancing at weddings. Actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui has never shied away from speaking his mind, and in a recent interview, he once again proved why he remains one of Bollywood's most honest voices. Speaking on the All About Eve YouTube channel, the acclaimed actor reflected on his experience shooting the now-iconic song Emotional Atyachaar from Dev D, admitted he didn't particularly enjoy filming it, and revealed his unfiltered views on actors performing at private functions. Nawaz said he was genuinely surprised by the song's massive success, given the on-set experience didn't quite live up to expectations. 'I didn't have the most pleasant time shooting it," he said, 'but when the song exploded, I was shocked." The conversation then turned to a controversial subject in the film industry: actors dancing at weddings or private events for money. Nawaz didn't hold back. 'Yes, why not? What's wrong with it? It's a part of our profession," he said. 'People complain that actors dance at weddings, but we're all 'bhands'—folk performers. In the past, 'bhands' were considered outcasts. They weren't allowed to mix with polite society. They performed, took their pay, and went back to their tents." He added that while actors today enjoy fame and luxury, their artistic lineage still stems from the same tradition. 'Now that we're rich and cultured, we think we've arrived. But in our hearts, we're still outsiders performing for approval. The 'bhandgiri' continues." Nawaz's take echoes the sentiments shared by Ranveer Singh and Akshay Kumar on Koffee with Karan, where both admitted to enthusiastically performing at weddings. Akshay joked, 'Shaadi hai, main naach raha hoon; birthday hai, main naach raha hoon; mundan hai, bachcha ro raha hai, main naach raha hoon," while Ranveer called him the pioneer of monetizing private gigs.
