Karan Johar has cast Fawad Khan in two of his production ventures. Fawad did both Kapoor And Sons and Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, back to back. He was also slated to do another film, titled Raat Baaki with Katrina Kaif.
But now that's on hold. Karan faced severe backlash as things went awry post the Uri attack. The relationship between India and Pakistan went from bad to worse and his film (because it starred Fawad) and he became a recipient of most of the brickbats.
Now, the issue has cooled down a bit. So does he ever want to direct or cast Fawad again in his film? Karan had a clear answer to this.
KJo said, "You know what I went through. It was a tough time for me. I have a great regard for talent and I have a great regard for Fawad Khan’s talent which is why he’s been in two of our films. The circumstances… we don’t know where we’re heading, and I think all great actors should find the best platforms and just like you I hope Fawad Khan finds the best platform because he’s a terrific actor. Having said that, I never want to go through what I went at that time."
