Ali Fazal will reportedly start shooting for Paatal Lok Season 1 director Prosit Roy for a Prime Video series, amid financial fraud allegations on Rakt Brahmand. Raj & DK’s much-awaited Netflix series, Rakt Brahmand, has been under the scanner for reports pertaining to a possible financial fraud. While the cast has maintained silence on the matter, Ali Fazal, who was to play a leading character in the series, has reportedly paused shoot for the time being.
As per industry sources, Fazal has started shooting for Paatal Lok 1 director Prosit Roy for a Prime Video series, co-starring Sonali Bendre. “Ali was to start this show a little later in the year. But with the break in Rakt Bramhand’s shoot, owing to the reimagining of some sequences and some reported financial mismanagement, this series is starting earlier than expected," a source told Mid-Day.
The series, based on true events, will be first shot in Delhi before moving base to Mumbai for the final leg. The source further added, “Since it’s based on real-life events, the team is finalising real locations across Delhi. Prosit, who previously co-directed the first season of Paatal Lok, wants to keep the visuals raw and immersive.
The series will also see Ali perform elaborate action sequences. After the Delhi schedule wraps up by May, the unit will move to Mumbai, where the climax will be filmed. The second leg may overlap with Rakt Bramhand, but Ali will juggle the two projects.
