Will Pushpa 2 star Fahadh Faasil enter Bollywood with an Imtiaz Ali movie?

Aavesham star Fahadh Faasil is one of the most respected actors in India. He has worked in Tamil and Telugu movies along with ones in Malayalam, which is his mother tongue. Since years, fans were wondering if he would ever do a Hindi film. Other young stars liks Dulquer Salmaan and Prithviraj Sukumaran have done a few movies in Hindi language. Now, news is coming that he will do his first Hindi movie with Imtiaz Ali. The Amar Singh Chamkila director has a love story that he feels is well suited for the personality of Fahadh Faasil. 

The two met up since months and finally it looks like he is on board. A source told Pinkvilla, “Imtiaz is making a pure love story, and the casting for the female protagonist is underway. He is excited about the subject and feels this is the right time to tell the story. He has gone ahead to pitch the film to Fahadh because he feels that the actor fits the bill and the story calls for his casting.” Fahadh Faasil who is the son of filmmaker Faasil is one of the highest paid stars of the Malayalam film industry. Imtiaz Ali is on a high after the success of Amar Singh Chamkila. 

Fans of Pushpa might know him as Inspector Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat of the Allu Arjun movie. He is back in Pushpa 2 as well. Fahadh Faasil said that the Pushpa 2 did not do anything noteworthy for his career. He said it is Malayalam cinema that showcased his talent. Faasil said he mentioned this to filmmaker Sukumar as well. He feels there is no reason to be dishonest about it. 

Fahadh Faasil made news when he praised Ranbir Kapoor saying he is one of the finest to come out of India. After a lacklustre debut, Fahadh Faasil made a comeback after seven years. It was Bangalore Days (2014) that made him a force to reckon with. He is married to Nazriya Nazim.  Fahadh Faasil and Imtiaz Ali fans must be waiting for this great piece of news to come out officially!
