In the film, Nawazuddin Siddiqui plays the role of a transgender, who relocates from Allahabad to Delhi and reaches the top of the crime world.

In an interview with Hindustan Times, Nawazuddin Siddiqui revealed how he prepared for the role. "I have really worked hard on it after a long time. Before filming 'Haddi', I stayed among the (transgender) community. I realised that they relate themselves to females. They wish to become a woman and think of it as something that completes their lives. I kept these things in mind to play the role. I always thought that I am playing a female character. It used to be both mentally and physically exhausting. Shooting khatam hotein hi I used to be like ‘Oh my God! Ghar ja k bus so jau’ (I just wanted to go home after shoot and sleep),” he said.
