Fahadh Faasil is undoubtedly one of the most sought-after actors in Indian cinema, and now it seems Trisha Krishnan wants to work with the actor as well. In a recent appearance for Thug Life promotions, the actress talked about the actor and considers Aavesham to be her favorite film in recent times. In her words, when asked about which Malayalam actor she would like to work with, the actress said, 'Without any doubt, I would say Fahadh Faasil. My wish is to act alongside him. It doesn't matter what kind of genre the film would be, he would do an exceptional work.' 'Aavesham is one of my favorite films, and no matter what kind of genre, I would like to work with him,' the Leo actress added. Interestingly, in recent times, Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt had also made a similar statement during her Cannes appearance. Talking about the immense talents in Indian cinema, the Jigraa actress said, 'Fahadh Faasil is an actor I truly admire. He is an exceptional performer. Aavesham is one of my favorite movies, and I would definitely be interested in working with him someday.' Moreover, the actress also credited herself for being fortunate enough to work with Roshan Mathew in Darlings.

Coming to Trisha Krishnan 's work front, the actress is soon set to appear in the lead role for the movie Thug Life, directed by Mani Ratnam. The gangster actioner with Kamal Haasan and Silambarasan TR in leading roles features the tale of Rangaraya Sakthivel Naicker, a Yakuza-like gangster who once adopted a young kid called Amaran from Mumbai. Raising him as his own, Sakthivel is presumed dead by many, with suspicions leading to his foster son. Now, returning from his grave with vengeance in his mind, the movie develops into a battle of death between them. Aside from the mentioned actors, the movie has Joju George, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Abhirami, Ashok Selvan, and more in key roles. On the other hand, Fahadh Faasil has recently wrapped up the shoot for his movie Odum Kuthira Chadum Kuthira, a comedy entertainer with director Althaf Salim.

Alia Bhatt calls Fahadh Faasil a ‘fantastic actor', shares dream of working with him: ‘Aavesham is one of my favourite films'
While Indian cinema boasts numerous stars across various languages, the number of artistes who have earned widespread acclaim, recognition and reverence purely for their acting abilities is far smaller. Among that significantly shorter list are Malayalam's Fahadh Faasil and Bollywood's Alia Bhatt, both widely regarded as two of the finest actors in contemporary cinema. While Alia's husband, Ranbir Kapoor, has previously expressed his deep admiration for Fahadh, the Jigra actor herself has now shared her dream of working with the Malayalam star one day. 'Fahadh Faasil is someone I really admire; his work [as well]. He is such a fantastic actor. I think Aavesham is one of my favourite films, and he was just unreal. I would love to collaborate with him someday,' she shared during a conversation with Brut India when asked if there were any regional filmmakers or actors she wished to work with. Alia also heaped praise on her Darlings co-star Roshan Mathew. 'There are so many actors and there's so much talent out there. I had the good fortune of working with Roshan Mathew on Darlings. He's, of course, a wonderful actor, who's done a lot of Malayalam content. He is also making waves in Hindi now.'

You can watch any kind of content,' she said. Often referred to as one of the finest actors in the country now, Fahadh Faasil is the son of legendary filmmaker Fazil. Though he made his debut in his father's Kaiyethum Doorath (2002), the movie was severely panned by both critics and the audience alike. Following this setback, Fahadh took a hiatus and moved to the US.

He soon began receiving more opportunities and showcased his renewed potential in films like Chaappa Kurishu (2011) and 22 Female Kottayam (2012). Since then, Fahadh has been part of several notable films, including Annayum Rasoolum (2013), Amen (2013), North 24 Kaatham (2013), Artist (2013), Oru Indian Pranayakadha (2013), Bangalore Days (2014), Maheshinte Prathikaaram (2016), Thondimuthalum Driksakshiyum (2017), Joji (2021), Kumbalangi Nights (2019), Malik (2021), Vikram (2022), and Aavesham (2024). His performances in all of these films have earned widespread critical acclaim.
