Actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui confirmed his next project with Amitabh Bachchan and said that he had never dreamt of working with him.
"I am very much fortunate to work with Mr Bachchan. I had never dreamt that Mr Bachchan would wish to work with me. It's my good luck that I am getting to work with such a big actor in my next film," said Nawazuddin.
