Fahadh Faasil shares his retirement plans of becoming an Uber driver in Barcelona: "Would love to drive people around"

He was last seen in Pushpa 2: The Rule and continues to be celebrated for his performances in acclaimed films such as Aavesham, Bougainvillea, and Vettaiyan.

Malayalam actor Fahadh Faasil recently shed light on his retirement plans during the promotional event of his upcoming film Maareesan.

In an interview with THR India, the Pushpa star shared that if the film industry ever moves on from him, his dream would be to drive an Uber in Barcelona, simply enjoying the experience of taking people around the city.

When asked about the same, he said, "Absolutely. We were in Barcelona a few months ago. So, yeah, of course. It’ll only happen after people are done with me, you know? I mean, jokes apart, but just to drive someone from one place to another. At least, witnessing someone’s destination, I think that’s a beautiful thing."

He further added, "I still do that every time I get a chance. That’s my time. Not just driving, you constantly engage yourself in things you love doing, be it a game or sport or watching TV. I think it helps in the way you look at things.”

He was referring to a remark he had made during a 2020 interview with IE, where he mentioned that, at the time, the only thing he could see himself enjoying apart from his current work was being an Uber driver.

"I would love to drive people around. I tell my wife (Nazriya Nazim) that as a retirement plan, I wish to move to Barcelona and drive people across Spain. She loves this plan," he added.
