Heartthrob Fawad Khan has already impressed the Indian audience with his intense performance in TV shows like Zindagi Gulzar Hai, Humsafar and Waqt Ne Kiya Kya Haseen Sitam. He is now ready to astound them with his comical role in Aaja Sajna Miliye Juliye.

The show has already been aired in Pakistan and according to The Indian Express, it will now be aired in India on Zindagi TV.

Based on the modern adaptation of Mirat-ul-Uroos by Nazir Ahmad Dehlvi, Aaja Sajna Miliye Juliye, is a roller coaster ride of drama, romance and delightful splashes of lighthearted comedy.

The 33-year-old actor played the role of Asghar, a man with no ambitions in life.

Asghar is an intelligent but lazy person who wants to make it big via shortcuts and shirks any work that requires him to move. His parents and peers consider him to be absolutely useless. His favourite pastime is running after girls. He dreams of marrying into a rich family that can get him as far away from his backward village as possible.

Apart from the Khubsoorat actor, the show also stars Pakistani actresses Sanam Baloch and Humaima Malick.

Meanwhile, Fawad, who made his Bollywood debut with 2014 film Khoobsurat, is currently busy shooting for Kapoor & Sons in Coonoor, which also stars Sidharth Malhotra, Alia Bhatt and Rishi Kapoor.

The star has been quite a charmer on set. According to Times of India, a source said that despite not knowing one another, Fawad made a very positive impression on rumoured couple Sidharth and Alia. Sidharth and Fawad “bonded like long-lost friends” and Alia too was full of praise for his performance in Khoobsurat.

He even rubbed his charm on Bollywood legend Rishi Kapoor.

Kabir | 8 years ago | Reply I don't know why they change the names of these dramas before airing them in India (copyright?). The drama referred to in this article was called "Akbari Asghari". "Waqt Nay Kiya Kya Haseen Sitam" was called "Dastaan" in Pakistan.
