From playing a small role in Aamir Khan’s film 3 Idiots to playing lead roles in films like Fukrey and Mirzapur, actor Ali Fazal has come a long way. Over the past decade, he has joined hands with several directors across multiple languages and genres.
Though he loves them all, Fazal has a special place in his heart for filmmakers Anurag Basu and Imtiaz Ali and his recent appreciation post for them is proof of it!
Ali Fazal praises Anurag Basu and Imtiaz Ali, calls them ‘crazy creators’
Anurag Basu and Imtiaz Ali are one of the Indian filmmakers who have made some of the best movies for the audience. Their work ethic and way of storytelling makes them one of the most preferred directors to work with.
One of the actors who recognises his talent and craft is his father Ali Fazal. So, when he met the duo, he decided to capture that memorable moment. Soon after, the Sonali Cable actor praised Basu and Imtiaz on social media.
“Main zara aapse, aap zara humse… hum sab zara aapse. My two most favourite crazy creators in the game… Blessed! @anuragbasuofficial and @imtiazaliofficial,” Ali wrote in the caption.

Mukesh Chhabra said, there is love in Imtiaz Ali’s characters
Mukesh Chhabra, one of the most famous casting directors in the film industry, recently had an exclusive conversation with Pinkvilla. While talking to us, he told that the Rockstar director used to tell him the entire story of the character, even if he had only one scene.
Chhabra said, “Imtiaz Ali jo bhi brief dete hain na uske andar bahut zita mohabbat hoti hai. Woh ek chahe chota sa bhi role ho na uski bhi ek bahut pyaari kahani bataye hain (Whatever brief Imtiaz Ali gives, there is a lot of love in it. Even if it is a small role, he tells a very lovely story about it).”
Ali recently directed the hit film Amar Singh Chamkila starring Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra. Talking about Ali Fazal, he will next be seen in the Tamil film Thug Life alongside Sanya Malhotra and Pankaj Tripathi while Anurag Basu is all set to return to direction after 4 years with his next film Metro in Dino.
