Ali Fazal, known for his intense portrayal of Guddu Bhaiya in Mirzapur, revealed he struggled with some of the violent scenes in the show. He admitted feeling a moral dilemma while shooting one particularly brutal scene, believing it unnecessary.
In a conversation with Sucharita Tyagi, Ali shared that he often faces moral dilemmas on set, especially when it comes to certain scenes. He acknowledged that his personal principles sometimes affect his career, causing him to lose out on some work. However, he believes this is part of his journey.
Ali also shared his discomfort with a violent scene in Mirzapur, where his character kills someone in a way he felt was unnecessary. He expressed that the act felt wrong and the character couldn’t be redeemed after that moment. Fazal questioned the reasoning behind such a scene, as he believed it didn’t add value to the story.
The actor further cited that he often finds himself in a struggle between his own beliefs and the character he’s portraying. He admitted to questioning the filmmakers about certain scenes, but acknowledged that this sometimes leads to difficult conversations with the writers and directors. Despite this, he tries to understand the creative decisions behind the scenes.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Ali will next be seen in Anurag Basu’s Metro… In Dino. He will also be a part of Sunny Deol’s Lahore 1947 and Kamal Haasan starrer Thug Life.
