Fahadh Faasil Spotted with Rs 10 Lakh Vertu Phone – What Makes It So Special?

Malayalam actor Fahadh Faasil recently caught everyone’s attention, not through a film trailer or an award speech, but with his stunning Rs 10.2 lakh luxury phone. At a recent film event in Kerala, fans noticed him using what looked like a regular old keypad mobile. But this phone turned out to be a Vertu Ascent, a rare and premium device known for its elegant design and hefty price. While most celebrities show off flashy iPhones or customized gadgets, Fahadh chose a simpler yet classier option.

What Makes This Rs 10 Lakh Vertu Phone Unique?

The Vertu Ascent Retro Classic looks like an early 2000s keypad phone, but Vertu handcrafted it in the UK using luxury materials. The company built this model with titanium frames, a sapphire crystal screen, and fine leather, similar to what you’d find in high-end watches and sports cars. Since Vertu stopped producing it, the phone has become a rare collector’s item. With a price tag of 11,920 dollars (Rs 10.2 lakh), it serves as a status symbol for the ultra-wealthy. Fahadh likely bought the phone years ago and still uses it regularly.

Why Fahadh Faasil Uses This Rare Luxury Phone

Fahadh Faasil avoids social media and smartphones by choice. His friend, actor Vinay Forrt, once revealed that Fahadh stays away from platforms like Instagram and WhatsApp. Instead, he prefers basic phones that let him stay focused and disconnected. This Vertu phone reflects his personality, simple, old-school, and quietly luxurious. Even though it looks vintage, the phone includes modern features like Bluetooth, GPRS, and even a 24/7 global concierge service that supports users in over 170 countries.

How Fans Reacted on Social Media

When someone posted a video of Fahadh using the phone, the clip quickly went viral. Fans first mistook it for a cheap, outdated device. But after learning the real price, they flooded social media with praise for his low-key luxury. Some even joked that only Fahadh could make a Rs 10 lakh phone look like it costs Rs 1,000.

Fahadh Faasil’s Upcoming Movies

Besides his unique phone choice, Fahadh continues to stay busy with major film projects. He recently appeared as SP Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat IPS in Pushpa 2: The Rule. His next movie, Maareesan, will release in theatres on 25 July 2025. He’s also working on Odum Kuthira Chadum Kuthira and Patriot. Industry buzz suggests that Fahadh might soon enter Bollywood with Imtiaz Ali’s new film, The Idiot of Istanbul.

Fahadh Faasil proves that real style speaks softly. Even a phone that looks simple can carry a story worth Rs 10 lakh.
