Fawad Khan's work in Bollywood

Fawad has worked in some noteworthy Bollywood films like 'Khoobsurat' and 'Kapoor & Sons'. In 2016, after delivering an amazing performance in 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil', he had to step back from Bollywood due to the Uri attack. In 2023, the Bombay High Court ruled against the petition that called for a complete ban on Indian citizens, companies, and associations from collaborating with Pakistani artists. Justice Sunil B. Shukre and Justice Firdosh P. Pooniwalla, in their judgment, stated that "the petition represented a retrograde step in promoting cultural harmony, unity, and peace and lacked merit."

Fawad Khan- ‘I got a lot of love from India'

Earlier, in an appearance on Ahmad Ali Butt's YouTube channel, the actor was asked if his presence in Bollywood was ever taken as a ‘threat'. Fawad, while reacting to the question, said, "How do I know, man?" He continued, "That's such a heavy question. 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 own industry. I'm not saying it's unheard of; I'm sure it happens everywhere. There was one thing: I had PRs, and they used to get angry at this. I was like, ‘I need you to take out my name, not put it in there.' I would ask my PR to remove me from places, not put me. My manager would say, ‘You don't know how the world works'."
