I miss Fawad Khan a lot: Kapoor & Sons director

Kapoor & Sons has come and gone, but the Fawad hangover subsists in B-town.

And who can blame them?

In a recent interview with Indian Express, his Kapoor & Sons director Shakun Batra shared why Fawad makes such a solid impression.

“I miss him a lot. I don’t know if I am supposed to be quiet about it.. and I don’t miss him because of any other things, I miss him simply because he is a great guy and he is a lovely collaborator."

He added, "We Indians who work around the world, we do it legally, similarly, if somebody else wants to work legally in our country, it should be open. It should be a two-way street.”

Kapoor & Sons was Fawad's second Bollywood venture after 2014's Khoobsurat. He then made an extended cameo in Karan Johar's Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, which was a contentious release in India due to Fawad's Pakistani nationality. Due to escalating political tensions between Pakistan and India, Pakistani talent have been banned from working in India for an indefinite period.
