Pakistani star Fawad Khan is set to make a grand return to Indian cinema with a new rom-com, alongside Vaani Kapoor. Directed by Aarti Bagdi, the film will be shot entirely in the UK, marking Eastwood Studios' first international collaboration. The details of this highly anticipated project are being kept under wraps, but the storyline revolves around two broken souls who find love and healing through a stroke of luck.
Fawad Khan, known for his immense international appeal and popularity among South Asians, also has a notable presence in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. His return to Indian cinema is generating significant excitement among his fans, especially since it has been eight years since he appeared in a Hindi-language film. Fawad previously starred in acclaimed Indian films such as Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, Kapoor and Sons, and Khoobsurat.
In 2016, Fawad was at the center of a controversy when the Indian Motion Picture Producers Association (IMPPA) imposed a ban on Pakistani artists working in Indian films following the Uri attacks. The Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) party had threatened to block the release of Ae Dil Hai Mushkil and demanded that Pakistani artists leave India. However, the film was eventually cleared for release by the CBFC.
In a recent development, the Bombay High Court dismissed a petition seeking to ban Pakistani actors, performers, and technicians from working in India, paving the way for Fawad Khan’s return to the Indian film industry.
This upcoming rom-com is highly anticipated by fans and industry insiders alike. As the project gears up for filming in the UK, the producers are expected to reveal more details just before the shoot begins. For now, Fawad Khan’s return to Indian cinema is a thrilling prospect for his devoted fan base.
