Not too long ago, we reported that macho producer/director Karan Johar’s mother wanted his son to cast Fawad Khan in one of his films, Ae Dil Hai Mushkil. Well, her wish has been granted as K-Jo has cast the Pakistani actor in his film, but it’s not one with the aforementioned title. This one, alongside Fawad K, has Alia Bhatt and Sidharth Malhotra in lead roles. The movie, directed by Shakun Batra, is dubbed a ‘family drama’. No surprises there, K-Jo and drama go hand in hand.
