Controversy
Irul Release Controversy
Irul, a mystery thriller aired on Netflix on April 2, 2021, was his first release in the year 2021. Fahadh gained critical accolades for portraying a mystery character, despite the film's mixed reviews due to its convoluted plot. Joji, a crime drama directed by Dileesh Pothan, was released just five days after Irul. Critics praised his performance in the film in which he played the titular anti-hero. Some critics and fans believe his performance in it to be one of his best of his career. The tale is unmistakably based around Fahadh's character, Firstpost noted, and the actor plays a deceptively placid layabout boiling with wrath with the sort of unassuming brilliance that has become his trademark.Nearly a week after the release of Joji, the Film Exhibitors United Organisation of Kerala (FEUOK) issued a warning to Fahadh about acting in films intended for OTT streaming. According to reports, FEUOK has threatened that his upcoming blockbuster films in 2021, such as Malik, may experience challenges in getting a theatrical release if he continues to work with OTT platforms. However, the organisation afterwards maintained that all of the reports were false and that they had no relation to them.
