The Bradford International Film Festival (BRADIFF) will return on Tuesday 28th October 2025 at Pictureville Cinema, opening with the UK premiere of I’m Not An Actor (Main Actor Nahin Hoon). Directed by Aditya Kripalani and starring acclaimed actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui (Sacred Games) alongside Chitrangada Satarupa (Tikli and Laxmi Bomb), the India-Germany co-production has already built strong international momentum, with Siddiqui winning Best Actor at the New York Indian Film Festival earlier this year. Satarupa recently won the ‘Best Actor (Female)’ and Kripalani bagged the Jury Mention for Best Director at the DC South Asian Film Festival.
Shot live across India and Germany simultaneously for 28 days, the film is the first of its kind in Indian cinema, placing its two leads in a continuous video call across continents. The result is an intimate, day-long conversation that blurs the boundaries between performance and reality, teacher and student, Mumbai and Frankfurt. Associate Director Anuradha Pandey joined Kripalani in spearheading the production, with Nawazuddin Siddiqui also serving as a producer through Side Hero Entertainment, alongside Faizuddin Siddiqui and Sweta Chhabria Kripalani of Mumba Devi Motion Pictures.
UK-Based film and festival strategist Aman Dhillon debuts as Executive Producer and Bhavna Mistry is on board as the picture’s distribution consultant.
