This is the second time Shweta has been paired with Nawazuddin after 'Haraamkhor' that won both of them much acclaim. 'Raat Akeli Hai' is a crime thriller set in rural India and has Shweta playing an important role.
Speaking about it, Shweta said, "Acting alongside Nawaz Bhai is learning. He is a master of the craft and makes you look good by just being in the same frame. I take it as an honour and opportunity to be working with him again in 'Raat Akeli Hai'.”
