He said, “Working on Superboys of Malegaon has been an eye-opening experience. Nasir Shaikh’s story is one of sheer passion and determination—he creates cinema with minimal resources but maximum heart. Watching how he navigates filmmaking, with limited budgets, local actors, and raw talent, has been incredibly inspiring.
