Actor Ali Fazal is all geared up for his upcoming international film "Rule Breakers".
The film, that explores the themes of resilience and defiance in Afghanistan, is slated to hit the big screen in North America on March 7, a day ahead of International Women's Day.
Fazal, who has previously been a part of Hollywood films like "Death on the Nile" and "Victoria & Abdul", says he is proud to be part of "Rule Breakers".
The film is directed by two-time Oscar winner Bill Guttentag and stars Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Nikohl Boosheri.
Described as a gripping, women-centric drama, the movie follows the story of a "visionary woman who dares to educate young girls in a society where such efforts are seen as an act of rebellion. As their innovation captures global attention, their success becomes both a beacon of hope and a source of conflict."
Fazal, who plays the character of Samir Sinha, a techie from Los Angeles in "Rule Breakers", said the film is nothing less of a "gem".

"I couldn’t be prouder to be a part of it. 'Rule Breakers' is not just a story; it’s a powerful statement about courage, unity, and the impact of education.
"Releasing it on the eve of Women’s Day in the US makes it even more special because it aligns with the global celebration of women’s strength and resilience. I can’t wait for audiences to witness this journey on the big screen," the actor said in a statement.
"Rule Breakers" is produced by Angel Studios.
