Mira Nair`s Monsoon Wedding marks the return of Naseeruddin Shah on the big screen. It is after a long time that one got to see the talented actor on screen. But films don`t figure in Naseer`s list of priorities. What holds his attention today is theatre. Manto Ismat Haazir Ho is his new play that is running to full houses.

At the same time Naseer is busy grooming his daughter to get well versed with stage first before she makes her debut on screen. "But I have told her not to expect roles like the ones Madhuri and Juhi did, to come her way because she does not look like them. She will have to settle for less!" That`s Naseeruddin Shah living in the real world always!
