Nawazuddin
Siddiqui
On
Playing
Thackeray
Speaking
about
his
initial
reaction
when
approached
for
the
film,
the
actor
was
earlier
quoted
as
saying
in
an
interview,
"I
couldn't
believe
it.
The
producer,
[Sanjay]
Raut
saab,
approached
me
and
I
agreed.
I
was
happy.
There
was
nervousness
as
well,
because
I
knew
I
had
to
work
very
hard
on
the
role.
The
film
is
also
in
Marathi
and
Hindi,
and
I
am
not
familiar
with
Marathi.
So
I
had
to
work
on
the
language
too."
Thackeray
Received
Some
Good
Reviews
While
speaking
about
about
how
the
film
was
faring
on
its
first
day,
a
Pinkvilla
report
quoted
trade
analyst
Girish
Johar
as
saying,
"I
am
putting
around
10-15%
and
I
am
hearing
some
good
reviews
for
it.
I
am
expecting
it
to
pick
up
in
the
evening
shows.
Which
movie
is
doing
better
amongst
the
two
(Manikarnika
and
Thackeray),
we
will
only
know
later
in
the
evening."
