The romantic-comedy storyline revolves around two individuals who meet unexpectedly in a stroke of luck and end up inadvertently helping each other, eventually falling in love.
Fawad Khan, known for his roles in “Khoobsurat” and “Kapoor & Sons,” has previously discussed industry dynamics in interviews, acknowledging challenges with industry politics. In a conversation with Ahmad Ali Butt, he remarked on receiving love from India but also navigating industry complexities: “I got a lot of love from India, but every industry has its politics. It’s easier to combat in your own country. I’m not saying it’s unheard of, I’m sure it happens everywhere.”
In addition to his Bollywood return, Fawad Khan is set to appear in the series “Barzakh,” reuniting with his “Zindagi Gulzar Hai” co-star Sanam Saeed. Moreover, he will star alongside Mahira Khan and Sanam Saeed in Netflix’s upcoming Pakistan-themed original series “Jo Bachay Hain Sang Samait Lo,” based on Farhat Ishtiaq’s bestselling novel.
Meanwhile, Vaani Kapoor, known for her roles in “Shuddh Desi Romance,” “Befikre,” and “Bell Bottom,” is lined up for upcoming films like “Khel Khel Mein” and “Badtameez Gill.”
