She thought him to be uptight, serious and intimidating but much to actress Shweta Tripathi's surprise, her ‘Haraamkhor’ co-star Nawazuddin Siddiqui was unassuming, without any trace of star-like attitude.

The actress was a bundle of nerves on the first day of shooting as ‘Haaramkhor’ was her first Hindi film but Nawazuddin's "simplicity" and "humility" eased her out.

"When Shlok (director) told me that I would be paired opposite Nawazuddin, I took it as a joke. It is unbelievable that you get to act with an actor like him in your first movie. I had thought he would be all serious and I was nervous but it was not at all intimidating working with him. He was, in fact, more relaxed than me," said Shweta.

The actress, who shot for ‘Haraamkhor’ much before ‘Masaan’, added Nawazuddin used to ask for her inputs and discuss scenes with her.
"Nawaz was very sweet and normal with me. He used to discuss scenes and ask for my suggestion. He used to incorporate my inputs if he felt them he could use them. It was an incredible experience working with him and I feel blessed to have got this opportunity. I want to act with him only."

‘Haraamkhor’, helmed by first-time director Shlok Sharma, is a love story between a teenager student, played by Shweta, and her teacher (Nawazuddin).
