In this edition of BollyCurry's popular feature,
Celebrity in the Spotlight, we choose to bring into
the limelight an actor who's making his
Bollywood debut later this month, but has already
taken the nation by storm with his suave looks
and impeccable acting in various Pakistani
television serials, including the immensely popular
Zindagi Gulzar Hai and Humsafar . Starring in
Disney UTV's much awaited film Khoobsurat
(2014) opposite Bollywood's very own fashionista
Sonam Kapoor , Fawad Khan is here to stay!
Despite being an engineer by profession,
Khan had an inclination towards the world
of glitz and glamor from a very young age.
He made his modelling debut at the age of
13, continued to appear in commercials and
actively participated in school plays and
other cultural events. It was at the
screening of one of Khan's high school
plays where a Pakistani director took note
of his talent and encouraged him to try his
luck as an actor in television shows.
Taking the director's advice to heart, Khan
debuted in 2000 with the Pakistani
television show Jutt and Bond , while he was
only 19. In 2010, after a 10 year gap, Khan
landed the lead role of Hassan in the
television adaptation of the popular novel
Bano . The show was an instant success,
and Khan became a household name in
Pakistan. Following this, he went on to
portray the role of Asher in the popular 2011
Hum TV drama Humsafar , based on Farhat
Ishtiak's novel of the same name. Humsafar went
on to become one of Pakistan's most critically
and commercially acclaimed television shows, and
Khan received worldwide recognition for his
impeccable acting. He then appeared in the
Pakistani Hum TV drama Zindagi Gulzar
Hai (2013) as Zaroon, where he starred alongside
popular actress Sanam Saeed. Zindagi Gulzar Hai
went on to become one of Pakistan's most
popular dramas of the year and won him and
Saeed a lot of critical appreciation for their fine
acting prowess. He was also seen in the 2012
drama Ashk and 2013 drama Numm, both of
which went on to boost Khan's career graph.
Zindagi Gulzar Hai, incidentally, was recently
telecast on an Indian channel, Zindagi, which
made Khan a household name in India as the
show gained widespread popularity.
Khan made his film debut with the Pakistani film
Khuda Kay Liye (200)], which was the highest
grossing film of the year, and received widespread
adulation for his portrayal of the troubled
musician Sarmad. He also appeared in the 2013
film Armaan , based on Waheed Muran's 1966 film
of the same name. The movie was a success, and
went on to win Khan and his co star (Aamina
Sheikh) the Best Couple Award in the Tarang
Housefull Awards.
Khan is also an accomplished singer and
musician. He began his music career by starting
a rock band, the Entity Pardigm , with some of his
friends. One of his band-mates, Ahmed Ali Butt,
was his co-star in the television drama Bano .
Their first album Irtiqa , released in 2003, went on
to become a huge success. Khan then composed
and produced a number of singles, all of which
were met with acclaim.
On the 19th of September, Khan will be making
his Bollywood debut with Disney UTV's upcoming
romantic comedy Khoobsurat , a remake of the
1980 film of the same name, which originally
starred the yesteryear beauty Rekha in the lead
role. Reports suggest that he has also been
signed for Yash Raj's next, where his co-star is
slated to be Kareena Kapoor Khan.
Khan has been a nation wide phenomenon in
Pakistan, and his foray into Bollywood later this
month will only serve to increase his loyal fan
base. He is said to appear in a number of films,
including Sultana Siddiqui's next Pakistani film,
and Summer Nicks' science fiction film Kolachi,
which is currently in post-production.
Did You Know?
Khan met his wife Sadaf at the age of 17, and
soon went on to marry her. The two have a son,
Ayaan Khan.
Ali Zafar was initially approached for the role of
Sarmad in Khuda Kay Liye , but had to refuse it
because of a tight schedule. Khan went on to
essay the character, and the rest, as they say, is
history.
From this BollyCurry writer and the rest, we wish
Fawad Khan all the very best for his upcoming
Bollywood projects, especially Khoobsurat, and
hope that this film catapults him into stardom
