While many stars prefer flying off to exotic destinations for a vacation, actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui prefers taking a different route. Recently, the Badlapur actor decided to take some time off work and took his family to visit his village in Uttar Pradesh, where he even did some farming.

“Nawazuddin had been working non-stop for a while now and really wanted to get away. He had been talking about going back to his village for some time. His mother and his brothers stay there and he has been wanting to meet them, but he never had the time,” says a source. “Not only has he been taking it easy back home, but he also decided to do some farming,” adds our source.

Nawazuddin told us that whenever he comes home, he makes it a point to do some farming. “I have done farming for 20 years of my life. Whenever I get time, I take it up. It’s our ancestral occupation. It gives me a lot of pleasure,” he says.
