Ali Fazal was super excited to meet fellow actor Sridevi and actor-director Dustin Hoffman at a gala dinner in Los Angeles earlier this week.
Fazal, who is currently in the US to promote his film Victoria & Abdul, attended the annual Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) dinner. Talking about the meeting, the actor said: “It was indeed a pleasant surprise to meet Sridevi there. It was a great evening, well spent with some of the biggest names from Hollywood. I told her how much I admire her as an actress and how till date, she is an inspiration for so many.
“We spoke about Victoria & Abdul and she was excited to know about it. She even expressed her desire to see the film soon.”
He added: “The HFPA is such a respected body of such dignified personnel. Then the icing on the cake was meeting legends like Dustin Hoffman. It was a first-of-its-kind experience for me.”
HFPA has been making charitable contributions to entertainment-related organisations with the proceeds from television rights to the Golden Globes.
