Bollywood star Alia Bhatt has once again shown her admiration for South Indian cinema and its remarkable talent. After recently expressing her appreciation for Malayalam actor Roshan Mathew, Alia has now revealed her desire to collaborate with acclaimed actor Fahadh Faasil. Her interest was sparked by his exceptional performance in the action-comedy film Aavesham, which she described as “unreal.”
Speaking in a recent interview, Alia opened up about how deeply impressed she has been by the performances of several actors from the South Indian film industry. Among them, Fahadh Faasil stands out. “I was blown away by Fahadh in Aavesham. He was simply unreal. His energy, screen presence, and the way he immersed himself in the character were extraordinary,” she said.
Alia, who has long been vocal about her love for good storytelling and diverse cinema, said that she has been keeping a close eye on regional films. She praised the Malayalam film industry in particular for consistently delivering content-rich and performance-driven films, and noted how actors like Fahadh and Roshan Mathew bring authenticity and depth to every role they take on.
“I’ve been watching a lot of Malayalam films lately, and the level of talent is mind-blowing. After watching Roshan in Darlings and now Fahadh in Aavesham, I would truly love the opportunity to work with them. There’s so much to learn from actors who bring such natural intensity to their performances,” she added.
Fans across social media have welcomed Alia’s statement, with many expressing hope that a collaboration between her and Fahadh Faasil could happen in the near future. The idea of bringing together a powerhouse performer like Fahadh and a versatile star like Alia has sparked excitement, with moviegoers imagining the kinds of compelling stories such a duo could tell.
Fahadh Faasil, known for his work in critically acclaimed films like Maheshinte Prathikaaram, Kumbalangi Nights, and Joji, has carved a niche for himself as one of the most talented and fearless actors in Indian cinema. His performance in Aavesham, where he portrayed a quirky and intense character with signature flair, only reinforced his reputation as a dynamic performer capable of surprising audiences.
With Alia Bhatt continuing to expand her cinematic horizons and Fahadh Faasil’s growing popularity beyond the Malayalam industry, a collaboration between the two seems not only possible but highly anticipated. If such a project does materialize, it would undoubtedly be one of the most exciting cross-industry ventures in recent times.
