Fawad, Katrina to act in ‘Raat Baaki’ produced by Salman

He has also given his go-ahead to cast Fawad in his next production opposite Katrina Kaif, reportedly titled “Raat Baaki”. He is locked in. “We are now in the process of getting a female lead on board”, Nitin said.

The film will roll early next year when Fawad’s dates are available.

The so far unnamed movie is unlike Kakkar’s socially conscious movie Filmistan, and will be an urbane love story. Though technically, Fawad Khan is not Johar’s discovery – he has a slew of Pakistani serials behind him and he was brought to India by Anil Kapoor’s daughter Rhea – the Dharma helmer has made Fawad a part of his professional family.

Taking to media Director revealed many interesting things. The two have chose to work together. Let’s just say that we have been in talks with a lot of people, maybe Jugalbandi is one of them. When we are ready to make a public announcement, we will.

The production house of Salman is now busy with the Kabir Khan’s directorial venture Tubelight and will start the work on Nitin Kakkar’s project after wrapping up this movie. Apart from Tiger Zinda Hai, we had even reported to you how she has signed a film of Karan Johar that will also star Fawad Khan. Fawad has earlier teamed up with Karan for “Kapoor and Sons” and will soon be seen in the director’s upcoming romantic drama “Ae Dil Hai Mushkil”.

Dharma Productions’ next flick will in probability see Katrina Kaif and Pakistan actor Fawad Khan in a winter romance, given that speculations are rife that shooting of the film will take place in Delhi.
