With Karan Johar swearing not to cast any Pakistani ability in his future activities, his next with Katrina Kaif Raat Baaki-to be coordinated by Aditya Dhar-was left without a main man. Karan had before combined Katrina with Fawad Khan.
“This is so insulting. I am ashamed of Karan Johar..” -Mohd Rafi’s son Shahid on ADHM dialogue!
Karan has been searching for Fawad's substitution since the previous few days and we can now let you know that he has focused in on Saif Ali Khan.
This throwing is an intriguing one since this is Karan's third endeavour to charm Saif Ali Khan.
Karan had drawn nearer the Nawab to play Aishwarya Rai's ex in Ae Dil Hai Mushkil yet the throwing overthrow went into disrepair. Karan then requested that Shah Rukh Khan venture in. That sorted, Karan supposedly swung to Saif at the end of the day. After the consideration of Fawad Khan in the cast debilitated the arrival of Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, Karan was supposedly hoping to replace him with the Nawab of Pataudi. That too did not happen as Fawad's appearance was held in the film's polished product.
However Saif Ali Khan is not Karan's first decision for Raat Baaki. The movie producer had initially considered casting Sidharth Malhotra.
In any case, given the terrible audits and the dull reaction to the film at the ticket windows that KJo's last Sidharth-Katrina offering Baar Dekho got, KJo altered his opinion and did a reversal to Saif.
OMG! Saif Ali Khan to REPLACE Fawad Khan’s face in ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ ?
"Karan has as of now portrayed the script to Saif and Saif appears to have preferred it," says a source.
Saif Ali Khan featured in Dharma Productions' hit Kal Ho Na Ho, yet has never been coordinated by Karan Johar till date. Will the two at long last work together? The ball is in Saif's court now.
