During a chat with Mashable India, Nawazuddin Siddiqui shared an interesting story behind the iconic scene of ‘Permission Lena Chahiye’ from Gangs Of Wasseypur and revealed that it was inspired from her own life. He said, “I had a girlfriend, I asked her if we could go to a park, looked around, and it was quite empty, so I put my hand on hers. She asked me, ‘Yeh kya hai (what is this)?’ I said, ‘Kuch nahi, haath hai (nothing, it’s my hand)’. She said that it is illegal. As soon as she used the word ‘illegal’, all I could think about is police and court cases, and felt that I had committed a huge mistake.”
