"3 Idiots" actor Ali Fazal to join "Fast & Furious 7" team

Bollywood actor Ali Fazal, who starred Jay Lobo in "3 Idiots", will join the shooting team of Hollywood film "Fast & Furious 7" in Abu Dhabi.

The shooting of the film had been postponed following actor Paul Walker's sudden demise in a car crash.

Fazal said, "Yes, I will be joining the 'Fast & Furious' gang soon. We have to finish the filming."

Apart from "3 Idiots", Ali Fazal earlier featured in Hindi films like "Always Kabhi Kabhi" and "Fukrey".

Though the dates have not been sent to Ali, he has been told to keep himself ready to leave for Abu Dhabi at the end of this month, said the actor.

The shooting will resume in the first week of April.

Ali also plays the romantic lead opposite Vidya Balan in "Bobby Jasoos".

Since he would be required in Mumbai for promoting the film, which is expected to release around June, he is hoping that the shooting schedules of "Fast & Furious 7" don't clash with the promotion of "Bobby Jasoos".

Earlier, the actor had said that he has just a cameo in the Hollywood film.
