After working their magic in Kapoor & Sons, the power duo of Karan Johar and Fawad Khan has reunited for the upcoming film Ae Dil Hai Mushkil (ADHM).

It was earlier reported that the Khoobsurat actor’s phenomenal success at the box office has landed him extra screen time in the Ranbir Kapoor, Anushka Sharma and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan movie.  Karan has now opened up on the ‘special’ role Fawad is playing.

In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, the ace director shared his experience of working with Fawad. “I have to say that I was most excited working with Fawad who has a very special role. It’s a special appearance in ADHM. But it’s a very strong role … a very pivotal role. His energy is indispensable to the film,” he shared. “I am so glad that he agreed very graciously to be a part of the film. In fact, it was wonderful of him to say yes because it was a special appearance. It’s very important for his character to connect and be a part of the journey for you to kind of understand the emotional existence of the film.”

Speaking about the female actors of the film, Johar said, “Working with Anushka and Aishwarya has been one of the most incredible experiences.” The film is slated to release in October this year.
