Ali Fazal on working with Patal Lok director Prosit Roy in Raakh: "Had been on my wishlist for the longest time"

Speaking about this much-anticipated collaboration, Ali Fazal shared, "Working with Prosit Roy had been on my wishlist for the longest time. I remember watching Pari and being struck by how he built an entire world through mood, silence, and tension — his craft is unique and compelling. Later, Paatal Lok only cemented my belief that he is one of the most exciting voices in our industry today. When Raakh came my way, and I learned Prosit was at the helm, it felt like the universe was finally answering a quiet wish I’d been carrying for years."

He further added, "Playing a cop for the first time in my career has been both challenging and exhilarating, but to explore this character under Prosit’s direction has been nothing short of transformative. His attention to detail, his ability to push you as an actor without ever making you feel out of place, and the world he creates for his stories — all of it makes the experience unforgettable. I feel incredibly fortunate that Raakh is the project that brought us together. Sometimes, dreams do take time to manifest, but when they do, they’re worth the wait.”

The series is executive produced and directed by Prosit Roy, and created, written and co-directed by Anusha Nandakumar and Sandeep Saket.
