Fawad Khan to not play Deepika Padukone’s husband in ‘Padmavati’

There were solid reports about Fawad Khan being roped in opposite Deepika Padukone in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s upcoming next ‘Padmavati’. Fawad was to play the role of her husband, Raja Rawal Ratan Singh, in the movie where she is playing the titular role.

Now we hear that the dashing actor will not be a part of the movie. A source exclusively revealed to a popular daily, “Fawad is extremely busy with other projects in Pakistan.  Also he has signed a three film deal with Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions. So obviously the actor cannot break this and work with any other director. So there is no chance of him signing Bhansali’s ‘Padmavati’.”

That’s a sad news because we were waiting for the two good looking actors to pair up for a movie. The duo recently walked the ramp for designer Manish Malhotra and people went gaga over their chemistry.
