"It's a dream come true to be part of the Off-Broadway tradition, which has produced some of the most groundbreaking and innovative productions in history. I am thrilled to embark on this new journey and bring forth an experimental drama that I hope will resonate with audiences from diverse backgrounds," Ali said. Ali was recently seen in the Hollywood film Kandahar.

Written by Mitchell LaFortune, Kandahar follows the story of an undercover CIA operative, Tom Harris (Gerard Butler), taking viewers on an adrenaline-fueled journey deep into hostile territory in Afghanistan. When an intelligence leak exposes his identity and mission, he must navigate through the perilous obstacles alongside his Afghan translator Mo (Navid Negahban), to an extraction point in Kandahar, all whilst avoiding the elite special forces unit tasked with hunting them down. Kandahar Trailer: Spot Ali Fazal and Elnaaz Norouzi in New Action-Packed Promo of Gerard Butler's Thriller (Watch Video).
