Fawad Khan DUMPED by bestfriend Karan Johar?

Karan Johar is all set for the next season of his famous chat show, "Koffee With Karan".

However, unlike all his previous seasons where his first guest has always been his best friend Shah Rukh Khan, this time it was supposed to be Fawad Khan! Karan's closeness and fondness for Fawad had led him to replace Fawad with SRK.

But, looks like the growing tension between two countries has changed Karan's mind!

During  a recent interaction with the media at the 7th Jagran Film Festival on Saturday, Karan was asked whether he will begin the show's fifth edition with Fawad. He plainly said: "No. I haven't yet reached the combination. There has been a lot of conjecture about that. We are zeroing on episode one and will answer soon."

In its past seasons, the show has been graced by celebrities like Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Kajol, Rani Mukerji, Kareena Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Gurinder Chadha, Farah Khan, Anil Kapoor and Alia Bhatt.

Talking about the show, Karan said: "It's just another season. We have not created many more stars. There will be same lot in different combinations. Luckily, they (actors) have new enemies, lovers and controversies. So that keeps changing."

"When people ask me 'What's new?' I say 'Nothing'. I am older, they are older and they just have some more combinations to deal with," he added.

As for his films, the director is gearing up for the release of his film "Ae Dil Hai Mushkil", which features Fawad besides Ranbir Kapoor, Anushka Sharma and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.
