Sangeen is jointly produced by Gurjit Singh of Golden Era Films and Ankit Khanna of AK Projekts. Siddiqui described Sangeen as a “unique film” and said he is thrilled to be essaying a “thought-provoking character”. “I am looking forward to teaming up once again with Elnaaz Norouzi after Sacred Games. The script is an experimental one and I am sure Jaideep Chopra will do full justice to it and together we will be able to discover something novel,” the actor said in a statement. Iran-born Norouzi said she is honoured to reunite with Siddiqui after the popular Netflix crime-drama series. “Sangeen is an incredible script, a role I’ve always secretly dreamt of essaying as an actor. I am looking forward to bringing that complex character to life with Jaideep sir who has written it so skilfully,” she added. (With inputs from Press Trust of India)
