Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s latest film, “Custo”, is all set to premiere on Zee5 on May 1.
The trailer, which is 3 minutes and 15 seconds long, showcases Siddiqui’s compelling performance as a customs officer.
In the film, Siddiqui plays a determined customs officer who’s on a mission to bust a notorious smuggler in Goa and foil a massive gold smuggling operation worth 1500 kilos.
A story of integrity
The movie draws inspiration from the real-life story of Custo Fernandes, a fearless customs officer who made headlines in the 1990s for thwarting one of India’s largest gold smuggling attempts.
Directed by Sejal Shah, “Custo” promises to be an edge-of-your-seat thriller, with Siddiqui bringing his signature intensity to the role.
The film’s producers, including Vinod Bhanushali, Kamlesh Bhanushali, Bhavesh Mandaliya, Sejal Shah, Shyam Sundar, and Faizuddin Siddiqui, have teamed up with Bombay Fables Motion Pictures to bring this gripping story to life.
Priya Bapat joins the cast
Priya Bapat is also part of the cast, playing an important role alongside Nawazuddin Siddiqui.
While the trailer has generated a lot of buzz, it’s clear that “Custo” is shaping up to be a thrilling ride, exploring the high stakes and personal costs of standing up for what’s right.
Zee5 described the film as the story of “a hero with no cap – just a white uniform, unflinching courage, and the willpower to stand up for what’s right.”
The film raises an important question: what’s the price of honesty?
You can catch “Custo” on Zee5 starting May 1.
