Undeniably, Naseeruddin Shah and Shabana Azmi are some of the powerhouse of talents present in the Hindi Film Industry in today’s time but the two haven’t really shown up on the bigscreen since their last release in 1987, ‘Pestonjee’.
Says Naseer, “The right part hasn’t come along recently. Some projects fell through. Others never materialized. She accuses me of not wanting to work with her. Why should I do that? Why should I do a film just because she’s in it?
I don’t want to do crap with her. But it’ll happen again. I somehow have the feeling that all these years when we haven’t worked together has done our pair a whole lot of good.”
