Okay so again a fawad topic and IF-vaasis has started with their valuable opinion.

No doubt Fawad has old-school charm, looks to die for and baritone voice (not everyone have to like that) and most importantly he can act but being myself a Fawad fan I believe that he is still limited as Bollywood Commercial Hero. He is more of a character artist as someone one pointed in comments he is good for Vishal Bhardwaj kind of movies.

Because Bollywood hero not only act but dances with hundreds of back dancers, fights illogical action scenes, romance with heroine in foreign location, flaunts his six-pack abs and in current times have lots of kissing and hot scenes. Fawad lacks in those departments.

Besides that, superstar era has gone from Bollywood. Gone are the days when every actor has his own signature styles for dancing, acting, and dialogue delivery. These 3 khans from 90's were the last superstars.

Vishal is attending PIFF, so he is obliged to mention about Pak artists.

In Bollywood, unfortunately romantic heroes don't have long run. Rajesh Khanna was the last. In the last decade, all chocolate heroes (Shahid, Imran Khan) have melted like chocolates in Sun. Fawad would never have been a superstar.

Anyway, how is he doing in Pak now?

Fawad is a good actor!

I don't get it, how comes signer are allowed to sing for BW films but Pakistani actors are banned to work in BW industry. 🤔

Atif and Rahat are still working for BW, i.e. Recently recorded songs for Salman's and Varun's films.

Its the hypocrisy of Bollywood. They are fine as long as Pakistanis are only heard and not seen. I also read that Pakistani singers dont get credit for their songs in many cases. So I would fault the singers too who just for the sake of money are willing to work under any circumstances. Both Atif and Rahat are successful and probably have lot of money already so I dont understand the desperation to sing in BW.
