Guddu Pandit is officially part of India’s pop culture. The character Ali Fazal plays in Mirzapur has always been a fan favourite, and since the release and success of Mirzapur: The Movie, it has reached new heights. Fans of the actor are now getting the character’s name and his likeness tattooed on themselves, leaving Ali quite overwhelmed.
Ali Fazal reacts to fans getting his face tattooed
Since the film released in theatres last week, many fans have shared getting tattoos of Guddu Pandit’s name on their arms, and one even got Ali’s face inked on his body. When Ali saw the pictures, he said he was overwhelmed. “Honestly, I am extremely touched and overwhelmed by the love Guddu Bhaiya continues to receive. To see how the fandom has grown over the years, and has now multiplied even more after Mirzapur The Movie came to theatres, is incredibly humbling. People have connected with Guddu in ways I could never have imagined, and seeing fans take that love to the extent of getting tattoos inspired by him is truly surreal,” the actor says.
