He apparently reached out to him and Fawad gave him a verbal commitment too. But because of rising tensions between India and Pakistan, RGV dropped the idea to cast the actor.

Ali | 8 years ago | Reply We are more interested in what is Fawad Khan , The PAKISTANI star is doing for Pakistani industry. We don't want to see him in Bollywood. Pakistani industry is gradually improving and we expect some quality films in years to come.
