Biography

A. M. Fazil (born 1953, in Alleppey, Kerala) is an Indian filmmaker, producer, and screenwriter best known for his work in Malayalam cinema.

His father wanted him to be a doctor, but in school and college, extra curricular activities dominated his time.[2] He wrote plays and staged them with his friends; Nedumudi Venu was his college mate while in S.D .College Alleppey and this group was perhaps the first mimicry team that entertained crowds.[2] "I used to mimic stars like Sathyan, Sivaji Ganesan and Govindankutty. I learnt later that Mammootty, Siddique and Lal had seen our programmes in Kochi."[2] He completed his post-graduation in economics with a high second class.[2]

Since the early 1980s Fazil has directed some 30 movies. His freshman film was Malayalam filmdom with Manjil Virinja Pookkal, produced by Maliampurackal Chacko Punnoose (Navodaya Appachen) which was also Mohanlal's first movie. (Fazil has a knack for spotting talent, he introduced some of the biggest names in films in south India.) Mohanlal in Manjil Virinja Pookkal, Nadhiya in Nokketha Doorathu Kannum Nattu, Baby Shalini in Ente Mamattikkuttiyammakku, and Kunchacko Boban, all had their first acting stints under Fazil's direction. Nagma was introduced to the south in Fazil's Killer (Telugu) while Khushboo started her southbound journey with his Varusham 16.[2] Fazil has been noted for his subtle style of directing and many of his films have been critically lauded.

With numerous Malayalam films, as well as several Tamil films and one Telugu film under his belt, Fazil has managed to win the most number of State awards for the best film with popular appeal and aesthetic value.[2]
