Ali Fazal reveals playing Guddu in 'Mirzapur 2'
Ali Fazal shared a candid picture from the sets of 'Mirzapur 2', in which he is seen with a walking stick. He revealed that using the stick 'cost (him) months of physiotherapy in the wrist' but he has no regrets as the show was worthwhile. He also shared some musings, from the elements in Mumbai to world politics.
"That stick work cost me months of physiotherapy in the wrist. But worth every moment .. #mood in other news - looking towards interesting times.
Bombay has already been getting cold. Fascism may be coming right out of the planet. Love to all @PrimeVideoIN #mirzapur2 #mirzapur," the actor wrote. Ali, who plays Guddu Pandit in the Amazon Prime Video series, was seen by using a walking stick in the show after being shot in the leg. In this year, he was observed in a vengeful avatar, as he returned to avenge the deaths of his wife Sweety (Shriya Pilgaonkar) and brother Bablu (Vikrant Massey).
Recently, Ali revealed that he almost turned Mirzapur down because he had not been offered the character of Guddu, to which he was immediately drawn when he read the script. "I was stuck on Guddu. I was offered another part initially. I believe it had been Munna's part, which Divyenndu did. In those days, I was so committed to Guddu because I felt like there is so much I could bring to it," he told Filmfare.
"I like parts that are unpredictable if you ask me. If I can find out the entire journey in my own head, then it's no fun. There will not be any teamwork because I am not the only person. THEREFORE I made an excuse. I said I don't possess dates, something has come up. So I left. I QUICKLY got a call back later saying that we want to see, let's try out this," he added.
