On Tuesday, the makers of Haddi, starring Nawazuddin Siddiqui, unveiled the first look. However, soon after they dropped the post, fans pointed out at Nawazuddin's uncanny resemblance to Archana Puran Singh. In the motion poster, the actor looks unrecognizable. He can be seen dressed as a woman in a shimmery dress. His side-parted hair led some fans to speculate that it was Archana Puran Singh. Now, in an interview with Hindustan Times, the veteran actress reacted to the comparisons and said that it's a "huge compliment" to be compared to him.
She said, "It's the hairstyle which has become synonymous with me that is causing all these comparisons. I've used this side-parted look during the early part of Kapil show (The Kapil Sharma Show)." All I can say is it's a huge compliment to be compared to Nawaz in ANY way possible."
