Faasil is one of the rare actors who avoid social media and do not use smartphones. He rarely appears at public events, too, but a new video of him using a phone has caught a lot of attention. But this wasn\u2019t a usual phone with a touchscreen.<\/p>\n

Instead, Fahadh was seen using a simple keypad phone during the puja ceremony of director Abhinav Sunder\u2019s Mollywood Times.<\/p>\n

Why is it Expensive?<\/strong><\/p>\n

What made it special was that the phone was a luxury model, as its price could exceed Rs 1 Lakh. This rare phone is different from the modern phones we see today. Many are now curious about its brand, price and features. We have gathered all the details to help you learn more about this rare and expensive phone that Fahadh still uses today.<\/p>\n

Features<\/strong><\/p>\n

A video shared by content creator Effin M, who often posts about gadgets used by celebrities, revealed that the phone Fahadh Faasil was using is the Vertu Ascent Ti. The luxury device was first announced in 2007 and launched in 2008. The phone is made from strong titanium, has sapphire crystal screen protection and features hand-stitched leather on the body. Although it is now discontinued, the content creator shared that the phone can still be found on some pre-owned product websites.<\/p>\n

But after closely watching the video, the phone seen in the actor\u2019s hand looks very similar to the Ascent Retro Classic Keypad Phone \u2013 Grey, listed on Vertu\u2019s UK website. The design on the back, especially the texture and finish, matches the model shown on the site. While Effin M mentioned it was the Ascent Ti, the visual details hint that it could be the Retro Classic version instead.<\/p>\n

Price<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the time of its release, Vertu Ascent Ti was priced at a whopping Rs 5.54 Lakh. In comparison, the Ascent Retro Classic Keypad Phone is currently listed at $11,920 (approximately Rs 10 lakh).<\/p>\n

According to Onmanorama, Vertu offers a range of models priced from \u20b91 lakh, with premium options going up to \u20b970 lakhs.<\/p>\n

How to Know if a Vertu Phone is Real or Fake<\/strong><\/p>\n

Genuine Vertu phones are known for high-quality materials like sapphire crystal screens and premium leathers, meticulous craftsmanship, and a unique concierge service. You can verify the IMEI through Vertu\u2019s official website, which will provide details about the phone\u2019s specifications and potentially its warranty status.<\/p>\n

After having a successful 2024 with films like Aavesham, Vettaiyan, Bougainvillaea and Pushpa 2: The Rule, Fahadh Faasil is now ready for his first release of 2025, Maareesan. The film brings him back on screen with actor Vadivelu, his co-star from Maamannan. The movie will release in cinemas on July 25.<\/p>\n
