You may have heard Nawazuddin Siddiqui's story but this time you'll hear it from the star himself.

The actor, hailed as one of the best actors in Bollywood, has a struggle story that has resonated with many. Now, Nawazuddin will be penning down his tale in an autobiography titled An Ordinary Life: A Memoir.

The Mom actor made the announcement on his Twitter on Monday.

Nawazuddin is co-writing the book with journalist/children's author Rituparna Chatterjee.

Speaking to Mid-Day, Nawazuddin reveals that "We started working on the book almost two years ago. It traces my life from the time I resided in a village, to becoming an actor. We began writing this a while ago and will launch it in two months."

While many have heard of his struggles, its not easy to understand one's background completely. Nawazuddin has definitely had his fair share of hurdles while trying to make it in the entertainment industry and its about time we know where he comes from.

Says the Gangs of Wasseypur actor, "No one knows about my childhood and what it takes for a farmer's child, who lived in a joint family, to enter this field and make a name. Achieving this life could have only been a distant dream. The contribution of my parents and my village in helping me become what I am today has been immense, and makes for a major chunk of the book. Also, my theatre days have been beautifully chronicled. I think there's a lot of masala in there for people to read."

An Ordinary Life: A Memoir launches in two months.
