Bollywood star Nawazuddin Siddiqui has shared his thoughts regarding caste differences. 

He said that his fame and stardom do not make any difference in his village.

Sacred Games star gave an interview to a local news source in which he said,“In my own family, my grandmother was from a lower caste. Even today, they have not accepted us because of her.” He added, “The fact that I am famous doesn’t matter to them. It is deeply entrenched within them…it is in their veins. They consider it their pride.”
