Vishal Bhardwaj is one director in Bollywood who is known to make realistic movies on contemporary issues. But he is unique because his movies clock good box office numbers along with having great content, for example, Omkara, Maqbool and Haider. Exceptional actors like Manoj Bajpayee, KK Menon and Nawazuddin Siddique have wished to work with Vishal one day. But this time Ali Fazal seems to be grabbing the opportunity.

Currently, Ali Fazal has multiple projects on his list including a Hollywood film with Wonder Woman aka Gal Gadot. Vishal’s last film to be released was Pataakha in 2018 which starred Sunil Grover, Radhika Madan and Sanya Malhotra.
