About this listen

In this episode of Rekhta Guftgu, actor Ali Fazal opens up like never before.

From being born in Delhi and growing up in Lucknow, to discovering theatre at school, chasing independence in college, and finding his way through films like 3 Idiots, Fukrey, Victoria & Abdul, and Mirzapur, this is a conversation full of honesty, memory, craft, and culture.

Ali speaks about childhood, literature, sports, auditions, failure, friendship, acting as a lifelong learning process, and why vulnerability matters to great performers.

He also reflects on Urdu, poetry, Rekhta’s role in preserving language and culture, the importance of script and expression, and even sings a few lines penned by Muhammad Iqbal.

It is a beautiful conversation on art, identity, language, and what it really means to be understood.
