Actor Ali Fazal’s psychological thriller The Underbug will have its world premiere at the Slamdance Film Festival in the US. Directed by Shujaat Saudagar, The Underbug has Hussain Dalal starring opposite Ali Fazal in the lead.
The film has been officially selected for the upcoming edition of the Slamdance Film Festival which is set to take place from January 20 to 26 in person in Salt Lake City and Park City, Utah, and virtually between 23-29 January.
The film was shot during the small respite of time of covid lockdowns in late 2020 somewhere in the interiors of Maharashtra and is currently in post production.
“It’s unlike any other film I have ever done in my career so far. The film was shot under confusing circumstances at a time in my life which was already a test of patience and an emotional turmoil right in the middle of the pandemic.
“The hardest part was to gain the weight and the heaviness that was required for this character as the two characters are visually poles apart. Yes it’s harder to gain weight when you’re fit. The script was a collaboration of sorts between the actors and the writers and our director,” Fazal said in a statement.
