Indian film buffs have been eagerly waiting for Fawad Khan’s comeback to Hindi films for almost eight years. The wait is finally over as the actor is reportedly making his much-awaited comeback opposite Vaani Kapoor.
According to reports in Filmfare, the Pakistani actor is all set to make his big Bollywood comeback alongside Vaani Kapoor in a new film that is about to start production.
According to sources, the shooting of the project will soon begin in London, with the pre-production already completed. Specific details about the project are being kept under wraps as the producers want to maintain secrecy around their big coup.
This rom-com tells the story of how two broken people meet by chance and end up helping each other unwittingly. Falling in love is an eventual byproduct of their electrical connection.
The project is set to begin in September this year and will be completed by November.
Fawad’s return to Bollywood comes after the Bombay High Court dismissed a petition seeking a total ban on collaborations between Indian citizens, companies and associations with Pakistani artists, including actors, singers, musicians, lyricists and technicians. Justices Sunil B Shukre and Firdosh P Pooniwalla ruled that the petition was a “retrogressive step to promote cultural harmony, unity and peace” and held that it was baseless.
The Supreme Court, on November 28, dismissed a plea seeking a ban on the engagement of Pakistani artistes in India.
Meanwhile, Fawad was last seen in Karan Johar’s ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ and ‘Kapoor and Sons’.
