Fahadh Faasil, affectionately known as Fafa by his fans, is poised to expand his impressive repertoire as one of the most versatile and critically acclaimed actors in the Indian film industry. Renowned for his compelling performances across various genres, Fahadh has established himself primarily in the Malayalam film sector while also making significant inroads into Telugu and Tamil cinema. 

In an exciting announcement, filmmaker Imtiaz Ali revealed that Fahadh will make his Hindi film debut in a pivotal role alongside actress Triptii Dimri. 

The title of the upcoming film is not yet revealed, but filming is scheduled to start in the first quarter of 2025. This has created excitement for potentially another great film from the director known for successful movies like "Jab We Met" and "Tamasha."

The Pushpa 2 Star
