Fawad Khan is not the only actor who can star in a lead role besides Alia Bhatt. Our very own Bollywood export Ali Zafar has also bagged a role with Mahesh Bhatt’s daughter in a Bollywood movie. What’s more, the movie will also have Indian superstar Shah Rukh Khan in the lead role.
‘Rockstar’ Ali Zafar had taken a break from the Indian film industry when he had opted to work for his own film Deosai. For the movie, Ali had to undertake arduous training programs. However, when an opportunity came along for the Pakistani heartthrob to star in a flick with Shah Rukh and Alia, and he couldn’t pass that along.
The movie will be directed by Gauri Shinde and Karan Johar, Alia and Gauri all tweeted about the movie.
