Actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui's upcoming film, I'm Not an Actor, is generating considerable excitement as it gears up for its presentation at the 2025 Cinequest Film Festival in California. Directed by Aditya Kripalani, the film is set to be screened in March 2025, representing a significant achievement for both the film and its creative team. This announcement has sparked considerable interest, with fans eagerly awaiting this international recognition for a project that challenges conventional filmmaking norms.

Aditya Kripalani, who took on the roles of writer, director, and producer for the film, expressed his enthusiasm and shared insights from the production process on Instagram. He noted the distinctive nature of creating I'm Not an Actor, which was filmed live across two countries—India and Germany—with a production team operating from Mumbai and Frankfurt. In a novel approach, Kripalani directed the scenes remotely, utilizing two iPads—one displaying the live feed from India and the other from Frankfurt. The task of maintaining perfect continuity, including synchronizing sunlight and time zones, proved to be an exhilarating challenge for the director. He conveyed his enthusiasm to fans, stating, “Quite an experience,” emphasizing the creativity required to successfully execute this international endeavour.

The film features Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Chitrangada Satarupa in key roles, supported by a talented ensemble cast that includes Naveen Kasturia, Ayushi Gupta, Yasir Iftikhar Khan, Meenakshi Arundhati, and Vibhawari Deshpande. The production is backed by an outstanding team, featuring cinematographers Rishika Baruah and Sumit Singh, editors Hrishikesh Petwe, and a captivating original score by Aditi Ramesh and Amlan Ray. With contributions from notable producers such as Sweta Chhabria Kripalani, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, and Faizuddin Siddiqui, along with a dedicated crew managing various aspects from sound design to costume design, I'm Not an Actor represents a genuine labour of love.

The film's trajectory exemplifies the ability of contemporary cinema to cross cultural boundaries, merging technological advancements with artistic expression to convey a distinctive narrative. As I'm Not an Actor prepares for its presentation at the Cinequest Film Festival, it is evident that this film will not only engage viewers but also reinforce Nawazuddin Siddiqui's reputation as a multifaceted actor and Aditya Kripalani's vision as a director. The film's acknowledgement on an international stage at such a renowned festival heralds a promising future, and the director's sincere gratitude towards his collaborators—such as Nikhil Mahajan, Julia Novik, and Aarti Bajaj—underscores the profound personal importance of this endeavour.

With I'm Not an Actor set to be showcased at Cinequest, audiences can anticipate a genuinely global cinematic journey.
