Fawad Khan excluded from ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ promotions

Pakistani artists in the country are finding themselves in the eye of a storm that goes by the name of Shiv Sena. Popular actors Fawad Khan and Mahira Khan who have been signed up by Karan Johar and Farhan Akhtar for their upcoming blockbusters are being targeted by Shiv Sena who has objected to their working in the country.

Karan Johar has Fawad Khan working in two of his upcoming releases ‘Kapoor & Sons’ and ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’. Farhan Akhtar has cast Mahira Khan opposite Shah Rukh Khan in upcoming film ‘Raees’. Now Karan has decided that he will not include Fawad in the promotions of the said films and Farah too has decided that he may shoot Mahira’s portions in Dubai or some other location away from Mumbai.

Karan Johar was earlier too targetted by the political party for referring to ‘Mumbai’ as ‘Bombay’, therefore this time around he is playing safe.
