Will Pakistani star Fawad Khan be returning to Indian cinema? The highly beloved actor is poised to appear in a romantic comedy co-starring Vaani Kapoor. The movie, to be directed by Aarti Bagdi, will be filmed entirely in the UK.
Fawad Khan enjoys significant international appeal, particularly among South Asians globally, and has even been part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Details about this upcoming project remain undisclosed, with everyone involved maintaining silence. The producers plan to announce the project shortly before filming commences in the UK, according to a trade insider.
In 2016, Fawad Khan and other Pakistani artists faced controversy when the Indian Motion Picture Producers Association (IMPPA) banned them from working in Indian films after the Uri attacks. However, in October 2023, the Bombay High Court rejected a petition to continue the ban on Pakistani artists working in India.
The romantic comedy will delve into how two troubled souls meet by chance, providing each other with support, and ultimately falling in love. This untitled film has already sparked considerable excitement among Fawad's fans in India, especially since his last appearance in Hindi cinema was eight years ago, in popular films like Ae Dil Hai Mushkil and Kapoor and Sons.
