Fresh from winning the best debut by a male actor award at the Filmfare awards, actor Fawad Khan will be returning to the Indian silver screen, sharing it with the likes of Sidharth Malhotra and Alia Bhatt in a Karan Johar film, the Mumbai Mirror reported on Thursday.
The movie is scheduled to start filming in April, and will be directed by Shakun Batra of Ek Main aur Ekk Tu fame.
There is speculation on whether there will be a clash with Fawad doing a cameo opposite Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in Karan's directorial, Ae Dil Hai Mushkil. But that may be sorted after Fawad was spotted coming in and out of the Dharma office in Mumbai.
There were some reports suggesting that Fawad may not have been first choice for the role. The Mirror said that Fawad was included because Varun Dhawan was busy shooting with Rohit Shetty and Shah Rukh Khan. However, Bollywood Life claimed that Arjun Kapoor was also in the running for the role.
The as yet unnamed movie will be a family-centric drama.
