Famous Indian film critic and entertainment journalist Rajeev Masand previously claimed that the actor is currently looking for opportunities in Hollywood.

According to Deccan Chronicle, the Khoobsurat actor is seeking Karan Johar's advice and his inspiration seems to be Former Miss World Priyanka Chopra.
Fawad Khan makes his way to Hollywood
“Although Fawad was initially skeptical of the idea, Karan told Fawad the cultural stereotypes of Asians playing cab drivers and terrorists had changed after Priyanka Chopra’s Hollywood innings. That’s when Fawad got interested,” says the source. Priyanka, according to the report, will be showing Fawad around in Hollywood.
