Actor Ali Fazal has portrayed a cop on a mission in filmmaker Prosit Roy’s crime thriller, Raakh. He credits the 'vardi' (uniform) for a good build-up. During his visit to Delhi, he shared, 'A lot of workshops, a lot of readings that I needed to do for myself to understand how they (the makers) see this world from the get-go.'
Ali’s performance in the series has impressed not only the audience but also his wife, actor Richa Chadha. Sharing tips to other actors trying to survive in the West, Ali shares, 'Don’t be shy of giving auditions. It’s one of the most humbling experiences.'
Ali is among the few Indian actors who have successfully built an international portfolio, with projects such as Victoria & Abdul (2017), Death on the Nile (2022) and Kandahar (2023) to his credit. After Raakh, streaming on Prime Video, Ali is set to reprise his role of Guddu Pandit in Mirzapur the film, based on web series of the same name.
