Sonam's 'Khoobsurat' to release Sep 19WATCH: The teaser trailer of Sonam Kapoor's 'Khoobsurat'Khoobsurat: Bringing a fairy tale aliveSonam Kapoor supports underprivileged children's causeSonam Kapoor in Cannes with sister Rhea
Fawad Afzal Khan, one of the most sought after Pakistani singer-actor, has drawn flak back home for his decision to enter Bollywood. But he is unperturbed and says art is something that travels across all borders.

He is making his debut with "Khoobsurat", a remake of Hrishikesh Mukherjee's 1980 hit of the same name, opposite Sonam Kapoor. But even before the film's release, Fawad has earned a huge fan following, thanks to his show "Zindagi Gulzar Hai", which was aired on Zindagi channel.

When asked about his reaction on the criticism, he said: "The people you are talking about are very few. There will be people who will criticise. They are entitled to their opinion. Even if someone from India goes to work there, someone or the other will make noise."

"Art is something that travels across all borders. Art knows no culture and creed. As an actor, I would like to explore myself. I do feel bad, but I choose to ignore criticism. I think to pay attention to it is unnecessary," he told reporters Monday at the trailer launch of "Khoobsuat" here.

Charming as ever, he wowed everyone when he sang the title song of his show "Zindagi Gulzar Hai" at the event.

Directed by Shashanka Ghosh, "Khoobsurat" has been produced by Sonam's dad Anil Kapoor and sister Rhea under the banner Anil Kapoor's Film Company Pvt. Ltd. For Fawad, it's an honour to collaborate with the Kapoors for his Bollywood debut.

He said: "I think it's a very big honour for me to work with the family. When I met these people, I found them very interesting. Most of all, the way I was treated and welcomed was very kind and warm."

"So all in all, this has been a very interesting episode in my life. I had a lot of fun. There was a lot of love and warmth."

Fawad praised Sonam for being "a very accommodating, very warm, and very welcoming person".

"I took time for settling in the new environment, but the entire team, the production... everyone made sure to make me feel comfortable."

Releasing Sep 19, the film sees Ratna Pathak stepping into the shoes of her mother Dina Pathak who is still remembered for playing a disciplinarian and strict mother in the original.

I hope Fawad sings one of his own songs on CNWK. Even Bolo Bolo would do.

SPOILER
He sang So gaya yeh jahan so gaya Asman

all this talk abt what a colossal mistake taking up khubsoorat was etc etc etc i think we should cut FK some slack...honestly i'm sure he's far more concerned abt his career than any of here are...he has no sugar daddies in the industry waiting to design a perfect launch pad for him...the man deserves better wayyy better but have these opportunities been presented to him now that's the question we need to ask before jumping the gun ...many feel he should stick to dramas but it's been a year since i saw a decent pakistani show something i wish fk was a part of...i think he has made the leap at the right time maybe it should have happened with a better project but this is how it is now and i think we as his fans should keep faith ...it is difficult for a pakistani actor to penetrate into the industry and the ones who do end up playing a flowerpot in one of vikram bhat's films ( the trailer of imraan's movie made me cringe 🤢 )...khubsoorat is not a bad bargain ...a big banner like anil kapoor productions utv gives him great visibility... ...if i'm not mistaken .the yrf offer followed only after he was signed on by anil kapoor's company (i hope the yrf film is happening my hopes are pinned on it ) ...who knows khubsoorat might just hit the jackpot if films like heropanti 2 states could do well why not this film...even if it doesn't i hope something good comes of it...better projects might follow ...it's a long journey ahead and i don't think this is all that bad a project to begin with
