Nawazuddin fits into the shoes of this small time gangster from Delhi. Nawaz has the talent needed to play negative characters with perfection. He displayed this talent in Raman Ragha 2.0 and also in Gangs of Wasseypur. Though Raees wasn’t a hit but Nawaz’s role was praised in the movie. In this movie, he’s wearing dance shoes and imitating Michael Jackson. The director said in an interview that he asked Nawaz to show that he could dance to before signing Nawaz for the role.

Munna Michael is the third movie of Sabbir and Tiger and since the earlier movies were hits, critics believe that Munna Michael will also hit the right chord.
