Kapoor & Sons director Shakun Batra wants to work with Fawad Khan again

Fawad Khan has found a fan in many across the border, and this doesn't exclude bigwigs from Bollywood, like the Kapoor & Sons director Shakun Batra.

According to Indian Express, the director hopes relations between Pakistan and India improve so that the two can collaborate on films again.

At the IIFA's, Batra told reporters, "I spoke to him [Fawad] yesterday; I miss him and I wish he was here. Last year, we both were here together at the IIFA. Unfortunately, we all know what happened. In the long run, let's hope both the countries can become friends again and collaborate."

This is not the first time the director has spoken fondly of Fawad Khan. Previously, he had said, "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. 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."

Shakun Batra is currently working on a project related to 'Human interest story'. We can tell Batra wishes to have Fawad Khan on the project. "I write something what I connect with and not think what is right or wrong," he said about the project.
