Fahadh Faasil’s Hindi Debut Is Not Happening

Advertisements

The internet is  buzzing with  reports  that Kerala’s most distinguished actor Fahadh Faasil is all set  to  make his Hindi debut.

This is  not really true.

In an interview with me some time ago Fahadh Faasil  had very clearly said he  is  not ready  to  do a Hindi  film yet.  “The thing is, I am not fluent in Hindi. I  need to think in the  language  that I speak my dialogues in.Yes, I’ve been  offered  many Hindi films.I’d love to  come there. There’s so much talent there. But at the same time Malayalam cinema is also getting there. In a couple of years the language  won’t matter.”

For Fahadh Faasil  cinema is  liberated  of linguistic  barriers. “It’s not  cinema that  should travel . It’s talent that should travel pan-India.I  crave  to be in cinema.I  crave to get to know  more about the technical side of filmmaking. If am in a plane  with a  superstar  and  a screenwriter  I would rather sit next to the writer.”

Fahadh had expressed admiration for  Aamir Khan and Irrfan.  “I’d love to do a film with Aamir Khan.  Or to begin  with him,just discuss his  films and his approach  to acting, how did he approach something like Dangal?I’d  love to show him my films. I’ve never met him. Another  actor in Hindi cinema that I  admire is Irrfan Khan. Though I had never met him I admired him for the same  qualities that I  strive for. He  never tried to dominate the screen. He  made the film believable.”

He also expressed huge admiration for  Hindi cinema’s resident icon  Dilip Kumar. “ I am a huge fan. I’ve watched Mughal-e-Azam. I  love Madhumati. Dilip Saab never followed any style. He  followed the content. My father who  was a filmmaker was a big fan of Dilip Saab.”

Fahadh Faasil also loves Bollywood directors. “I am also  a  huge fan of filmmaker  Bimal Roy. Among contemporary Hindi directors I’d like to work with Zoya Akhtar  and Meghna Gulzar.”

 However  the Hindi debut is not happening  any time  in the near future.
