Fawad Khan is set to make his much-anticipated return to Hindi cinema in an upcoming romantic comedy alongside Vaani Kapoor. The film, an international project directed by Aarti Bagdi, will be shot entirely in the UK, according to a report by news agency IANS.
A trade source revealed, “Fawad Khan has a massive international pull given his popularity among South Asians worldwide. He has also been a part of the Marvel cinematic universe. Details of this project are being kept under wraps, and everyone is tight-lipped about it.” The source added that the film tells the story of two broken people who meet by chance and end up helping each other, eventually falling in love.
Fawad Khan, known for his roles in Hindi films like Khoobsurat and Kapoor & Sons, recently discussed his experience in the Hindi film industry. In an interview with Ahmad Ali Butt, the Zindagi Gulzar Hai actor shared, “I got a lot of love from India, but look, every industry has its politics. In Pakistan as well. But it’s easier to combat in your industry. I’m not saying it’s unheard of, I’m sure it happens everywhere.”
Khan is also set to appear in the series Barzakh, reuniting with his Zindagi Gulzar Hai co-star Sanam Saeed. Additionally, Fawad Khan, Mahira Khan, and Sanam Saeed will star in Netflix’s first Pakistan-themed original, Jo Bachay Hain Sang Samait Lo, an adaptation of Farhat Ishtiaq’s bestselling 2013 Urdu-language novel.
Meanwhile, Vaani Kapoor, known for her performances in films like Shuddh Desi Romance, Befikre, Bell Bottom, and Shamshera, has a busy lineup with upcoming films such as Khel Khel Mein and Badtameez Gill.
Fans of Fawad Khan and Vaani Kapoor are eagerly awaiting more details about this promising new project, which is sure to be a highlight in both actors’ careers.
