The Emmy award-winning South Korean survival drama Squid Game, created by Hwang Dong-Hyuk, was released on Netflix last year and became an overnight success. The critically acclaimed series became quite popular across the globe. While it featured a predominantly Korean cast, desi audiences are sure to remember one of the very prominent characters from the series named Ali, a Pakistani immigrant to the country who is one of the contenders for the cash prize. If you do not know it already, the name of the actor is Anupam Tripathi.
While Squid Game helped Anupam Tripathi garner a huge fan following on social media, the young actor recently had his own fanboy moment as he got a chance to meet director Anurag Kashyap. The Gangs of Wasseypur filmmaker is presently in South Korea to attend the Busan International Film Festival. He met Anupam Tripathi in Seoul, and the two shared great moments together, including lunch at a restaurant.

“Simply amazing moment for me. I just had a meeting with one of my favourite film directors from India, Anurag Kashyap. Thank you, sir, for this short but awesome meeting with you", wrote Anupam in the caption.
