Director Fazil is one the most popular filmmakers in the Malayalam and Tamil film industries with several hits under his name. He made several blockbusters in his career and introduced several new talents to the film industry.
This versatile filmmaker took a break from wielding the megaphone for nearly a decade for various reasons. But it looks like Fazil is planning to make a comeback as a director. Reports are that he will be directing a film with his son Fahadh Fazil in the lead. More details about this project are expected to be out soon.
Recently, Fazil was seen as Father Nedumbally in the Prithviraj directorial Lucifer. Despite the fact that it was a cameo, Fazil’s role in the film was noted by the audiences and he is receiving good reviews.
Earlier, there were reports that Fazil’s comeback film will be with Mammootty and that it would be scripted by Siddique-Lal but these reports have quashed by the director as rumors.
Interestingly, Fahadh made his acting debut with his father’s directorial Kaiyethum Doorath in 2002. The actor is currently busy with two films, Trance and Athiran. Trance is in the filming stage and Athiran is gearing up for release this month.
Directed by Anwar Rasheed, Trance has been scripted by Vadakkan Vincent. Bankrolled by Anwar Rasheed under his banner Anwar Rasheed Entertainments, the film stars Fahadh Faasil in the lead role with Vinayakan, Soubin Shahir, Chemban Vinod, Sreenath Bhasi and Alphonse Puthran also included to the star cast.
