Babil Khan Commences Shoot For Gandhi Bazar Sunday Market, Marks Malayalam Debut In Style

Bollywood actor Babil Khan has started shooting for his Malayalam debut film "Gandhi Bazar Sunday Market" in Siliguri. The film is directed by Babu Janardhanan and will also feature Aparna Balamurali, Deepak Parambol, Nikhil Nair, Johny Antony, Jagadish, Sudheer Karamana, Unni Raja, Athmiya, and Jayashankar in pivotal roles.

"Malayalam cinema has always held a very special place in my heart because of the honesty, sensitivity, and emotional depth with which stories are told. As an actor, I've always believed that growth comes from stepping into the unknown and surrendering yourself completely to a new world, new people, and new emotions. Beginning the shoot for 'Gandhi Bazar Sunday Market' in Siliguri feels incredibly exciting, emotional, and creatively fulfilling for me," Khan said in a statement.

"Working with Babu sir and sharing screen space with such talented actors is going to be a great experience for me. I've always wanted to be part of stories that leave a lasting impact and challenge me to evolve not just as an actor, but also as a person. This film gives me exactly that opportunity. Entering Malayalam cinema is not just a new chapter in my career, it's a journey I genuinely feel grateful and humbled to begin," he added.

Khan, the son of late actor Irrfan Khan, made his acting debut in 2022 with the Netflix psychological drama film "Qala ". He is known for his role in "The Railway Men" series, which revolved around the horrific 1984 Bhopal Gas Tragedy. His last work is the 2025 cyber-thriller film "Logout", which premiered on ZEE5. It was directed by Amit Golani and also starred Nimisha Nair alongside Khan.
