Nawazuddin Siddiqui-starrer Haddi will also feature transgenders in the film

The makers of Nawazuddin Siddqui-starrer Haddi have brought on board 300 transgenders in the film.

Talking about filming Haddi, producer Sanjay Saha said, "The process was very adventurous and hard at the same time. It was not very difficult to convince them as we were also learning their life experiences and making them a part of the film. We had a great time learning tons of things from them, including how their life and world is very different from us."

The makers were also helped by one of the transgenders on the set, Saha said, "She helped us learn about their community and their upbringing, along with the challenges faced by them from childhood to their day-to-day life. She also made us visit many people from the community which helped us write the script and get a better understanding of their life. She had brought some of her friends from the community to Nawaz so that he could get into the character and deeply understand their life."

"I'm glad how Nawaz has spent a lot of time with them and making sure he truly understands what they go through."

The team shot with the transgenders in Delhi. Directed by Akshat Ajay Sharma, the film also stars Anurag Kashyap, Resh Lamba and Ila Arun.
