Siddiq sir was a very good person. If you go to him for any help, the response will be very good. What a good thing it is that someone treats us like that.’ Actress Tesnikhan talks to Manorama Online about director Siddique.
‘Years ago in the film In Harihar Nagar, sir called me and asked if I could come and stand in the song called ‘Unnam Nahi Tenniparanna’. I was little then. A small scene was made in it. He then played a small role in the film Godfather. And after 25 years, he acted in the film Sir Fukri. He doesn’t get angry and speaks softly even during shooting. Tesni will say do it very peacefully. Everything seems so easy when working with him.’
“Meanwhile, I had directed a short film called ‘Istiri’. This was his first time directing. That day I told the story to sir. He then said to go on bravely. He was also the one who inspired Pooja for that short film. Tesnikhan said.

“I didn’t get a chance to do many films with Siddique sir or be one of the main characters in his films. Many people have asked me why Siddique Lal and Rafi McCartin did not appear in their films. But it all depends on your luck. If you ask me if I am sad that I am not able to work more with Siddique sir, I would like to say no. He was here as a person who treats us very well” – said Tesni.
