Ali Fazal is set to take a paternity break starting in July to prepare for the arrival of his child with Richa Chadha. The actor has decided to step away from his professional commitments temporarily to focus on this significant milestone in his personal life.
A source close to the actor informed Hindustan Times that “Ali is going to wrap up all his work by June 30 and will then go for a break for four to five weeks to focus on Richa and their soon-to-be born kid.”
Speaking of films, the source further added, “Ali has four to five days of shoot left for Metro… In Dino, and Lahore 1947 is almost up for completion. As for Thug Life, he will be wrapping up the majority of his shoot before he goes on break. Only one schedule of the film will be left post that, and Ali will resume work on it in August. It will be the first film that he works on after becoming a dad. He also has another film in the pipeline, which he will begin shooting for during the same time, however the official announcement of the film is yet to be made.”
Earlier in an interview with Hindustan Times, Richa shared that her husband Ali “is very hands-on, and he is timing his work commitments also accordingly.” She added, “I think fathers should always be around. It’s not just about helping the mother but also about getting time with the child.”
