Controversy Surrounding Fawad Khan's 'The Legend of Maula Jatt' Release in India

Recently, Fawad's film 'The Legend of Maula Jatt' faced significant controversy in India. Initially scheduled for release on October 2, the film was halted after widespread protests in several cities. Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chairperson Raj Thackeray strongly opposed the film's release, vowing to prevent any movie featuring a Pakistani artist from being shown in Maharashtra.

Fawad's Previous Bollywood Films

Fawad's last Bollywood appearance was in the 2016 film 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil' alongside Ranbir Kapoor. Prior to that, he starred in 'Kapoor and Sons' in 2016 and 'Khubsoorat' in 2014. With 'Abir Gulaal', Fawad is set to make his much-anticipated comeback to Indian cinema after eight years.
