Ali Fazal-Prosit Roy reuniting for action-thriller series sooner than expected
What's the story
Actor Ali Fazal will soon start shooting for a new action thriller series, directed by Prosit Roy.
The filming will begin in April, sooner than expected, as the shoot of Fazal's other project, Rakt Bramhand, is currently on pause.
The yet-to-be-titled series, co-starring Sonali Bendre, is being envisioned as an expansive, high-octane action extravaganza and will be shot in Delhi and Mumbai.
Plot details
Fazal's series to feature real-life crime story
The upcoming series is inspired by a true crime story.
An insider with direct knowledge of the production told Mid-Day, "Revolving around crime and justice, it is based on a real-life story."
"Since it's based on real-life events, the team is finalizing real locations across Delhi. Prosit, who previously co-directed the first season of Paatal Lok, wants to keep the visuals raw and immersive."
The series will feature Fazal in elaborate action sequences.
Production plan
Filming schedule and location details revealed
The series will be shot in Delhi in April and wrap up by May. It will then move to Mumbai for the climax scenes.
The source added, "After the Delhi schedule wraps up by May, the unit will move to Mumbai, where the climax will be filmed."
This second leg may coincide with Rakt Bramhand's resumed shoot, but Fazal is ready to juggle both.
