Mahira Khan and Fawad Khan are two supremely talented Pakistani actors who will soon be seen on the big screen in upcoming feature film Neelofar which marks their comeback in films after The Legend of Maulana Jatt. The film is scheduled to release on 28th November.
Mahira Khan and Fawad Khan appeared in Something Haute’s YouTube show, hosted by Amna Isani and Hassan Chaudhary. In the short chat session, they talked about working on TV again, their on-screen chemistry and Neelofar.
Talking about Fahira craze, Fawad Khan said, “I’m not even on social media, so I actually don’t know what the expectations of fans are regarding our pairing or chemistry. I know about this craze of Fahira.”
Mahira Khan also said, “I am the one who sends him the screenshots of what fans write about us. We have done no work together despite that Fans are so much loving that’s why we feel blessed, and we’re also a little mindful. If you think, we have worked with gaps like Humsafar was nearly 15 years ago then The Legend of Maula Jatt, where we weren’t exactly paired; it wasn’t “me and him” in that sense and now we are back with Neelofar. So yes, the expectations are definitely there, and we both know that.”
Talking about the viral Humsafar scene, Fawad Khan said, “The particular scene you are talking about was improvised by me and yes it became popular, And I had a bet that it is gonna work. Mahira Khan also said that Sarmad and Fawad were constantly improvising that scene and the hair pin was her style which she often used to tie her hair and it worked perfectly well in that scene.” Here is the link to the video ”
Talking about the casting of Neelofar, he said, “So it was Ammar’s first choice he had actually thought of Neelofar and thought of her. I just came into the cast just like that but Mahira was the director’s choice and it was Mahira’s bad luck that I was the producer. Mahira said that she thought let’s just do it and Mansoor is so Fawad and Neelofar is so Mahira.”
Talking about Fawad Khan as a producer, he said, “I am a difficult producer because I think I’m particular about things but it’s her good luck that I will say anything to her once or twice and then I keep quiet.” Mahira also added that it’s Fawad’s bad luck that she always keeps on talking and giving her opinions. She admitted that he is a good producer and his set is a pleasure to be on and the food she gets is amazing which is an integral part of a good set.”
Talking about if they will again come on TV screen. Fawad Khan and Mahira Khan both did promise. Mahira said she will produce it and Fawad Khan asked her for a good script. Fawad Khan said, “There is another Fawad Khan in the industry, you can see him with Mahira. If I will be alive and not retired I will do it” Mahira Khan was willing to do it , she said that she’s gonna produce it for them and Fawad Khan finally made a promise.
