Bollywood star Nawazuddin Siddiqui is known for his extraordinary talent in acting, and now it seems his daughter Shora is following in his footsteps. At just 14 years old, Shora started her acting journey by taking workshops at the Shakespeare Theatre in London. This exciting news was recently shared by Nawazuddin himself as he talked about his daughter’s passion for acting.
Shora’s Journey into Acting
Shora’s interest in acting is not new. According to Nawazuddin, his daughter has been passionate about performing from a young age. To support her dream, Shora is now undergoing professional training at one of the most respected acting schools in London. The actor shared in an interview how proud he is of his daughter’s hard work and dedication to learning the craft.
While discussing his daughter’s journey, Nawazuddin emphasized the importance of focusing on one’s passion. “Art is not something that everyone can appreciate easily. It takes time to develop a love for it. I always encourage my children to appreciate art, whether it’s acting, literature, or music. Shora is now doing a Shakespeare workshop in London. At this young age, it’s important for her to explore what she truly wants to pursue,” he said.
Guidance Without Pressure
Nawazuddin made it clear that while he supports his daughter, he does not want to push her into acting based on his own experiences. He wants Shora to have the freedom to explore life from her own perspective and learn through her journey.
“I do not want to force my own experiences or success onto my daughter,” Nawazuddin said. “It’s important for Shora to discover the world on her own and find her own way. She’s already showing a deep interest in acting, but I want her to follow her passion without any pressure.”
He further shared that Shora herself takes the initiative in finding opportunities. “She came to me and her mother, telling us she wanted to join a workshop in London. She found it on her own and asked us to help with the fees,” Nawazuddin revealed with pride.
Passion for Acting from a Young Age
Nawazuddin had earlier mentioned that Shora has always been inclined towards acting. Her love for performing arts was clear even as a young child. He often shares videos of her acting and performances on social media, showing his support for her creative interests.
When asked about how he encourages his children to focus on education and literature, Nawazuddin stressed the importance of reading classic Indian authors. “I tell my children to read works by great writers like Manto, Premchand, and Bharat Muni’s Natya Shastra. There is a wealth of knowledge in Indian literature that young people should explore,” he said.

As parents, we need to help them focus on things that can help them grow, like literature, arts, and meaningful education,” he added.
