Can you recognise this actor?

Here's a hint: He made Judi Dench go weak in the knees.

Richa Chadha is directing a short film, starring her beau Ali Fazal, comedian Aadar Malik and Satyajeet Dubey.

The short film -- produced by Richa's actor friend Vishaka Singh -- is set in 2025, when vegetables are too expensive and the world has gone beyond repair, thanks to rapid human development.

We stumbled upon some pictures from the film, and Ali's unique look in it.

Ali Fazal tweets this picture and writes, 'So i was directed by the Maestro herself @therichachadha and made up by @athenaofthegods so you can see the madness there.. rest will follow.. no more details from me. I like the white beard happening.'

Actor Satyajeet Dubey posts a selfie with the team, and writes, 'Thank you @RichaChadha for making me a part of this interesting, super fun #shortfilm for @indiatoday #conclave reunited with my coactors/friends from theatre n movies after a long time @alifazal9 @TheAadarGuy :)'

And another from Satyajeet: 'When the director herself looks after her actors, makeup touch up, what not, playing dual parts..act and direct in the same film, isn't it amazing? The most hands on director @RichaChadha aur @alifazal9 tera dhyaan kidhar hai ?'
