Rishi Kapoor has special appearance in ‘Manto’

Veteran actor Rishi Kapoor will be seen making a special appearance in filmmaker Nandita Das’ Manto — a biographical film based on the life of controversial writer Saadat Hasan Manto.

Actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui, who plays the title role in the upcoming movie, earlier took to Twitter to thank Kapoor for sharing screen space with him. However, he didn’t let out anything about the film.

“It was indeed a pleasure sharing the screen with Rishi Kapoor sir, what an amazing energy you possess even now,” Siddiqui tweeted on Wednesday.

“Thank you Nawaz! Did that bit for Nandita Das and Manto — title role played by you. We will have fun working together in the future,” responded Kapoor.

Actor Om Puri was signed on to play a character in the film, but he died earlier this year.

It is yet to be revealed what role Kapoor plays in the film.
