Fahadh Faasil has once again said that after
retirement he plans to settle down in Barcelona and be a Uber driver. He wants
to drive people across Spain. Not just drive them around . “Absolutely. We were in Barcelona a
few months ago. It'll only happen after people are done with me, you know?
Jokes apart, just to drive someone from one place to another, witnessing
someone's destination—I think that's a beautiful thing. I still do that every
time I get a chance. Not just driving, you engage in things you love, be it a
game or sport or watching TV,” Fahadh shared, describing the serenity he finds
in the simplicity of the idea. He said now to Hollywood Reporter. Interestingly,
this isn't the first time the Joji actor has spoken about such
a plan. In a 2020 interview with The Indian Express, he had mentioned the same
retirement goal, even highlighting that it’s something he has discussed and
planned with his actress-wife Nazriya Nazim. “As of now, there is nothing else
that I would enjoy doing other than being an Uber driver. I tell my wife that
as a retirement plan, I wish to move to Barcelona and drive people across
Spain. She loves this plan,” he had said then.
His Tamil
film Mareesan with Vadivelu has been released. On the professional front, Fahadh Faasil is far from
retirement. The actor is currently busy with a line-up of high-profile
projects, including Odum Kuthira Chadum Kuthira, Don’t
Trouble The Trouble, Karate Chandran, and Patriot,
among others.
So this
poster firstly clears the rumor that the film is getting postponed, and it is
in fact a “Dude Diwali Blast”. This means it will clash with Bison and Karrupu.
Back to
back Sai Abhyankar Musicals for Diwali. Interesting debut.
Secondly, it
confirmed the working crew members of the team, on the left, as well as their
already locked massive deal with Netflix.
Now we hear that Karuppu has too signed with Netflix.
Two films committed to one OTT platform releasing on same date is usually avoided.
Si speculation was that DUDE will get postponed but not so. As far as LIK is
concerned ilm will
instead, be locking in the February 2026 Valentines Day Date, and will be
releasing a glimpse video confirming this on August 1st, like stated at the
bottom of the poster of LIK.
