According to sources, Khan’s role will play the husband of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s character in the film. According to reports, SRK’s character will die early in the movie.

The film’s teaser was recently launched, and has received mostly favourable reviews. The multi-starrer has Ranbir Kapoor, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Anushka Sharma in the lead roles, with Fawad Khan roped in for a major role. With Deepti Naval, Lisa Haydon in supporting roles, the film has been scheduled for a Diwali release on 28 October this year. It will go head-to-head with Ajay Devgn’s Shivaay at the box office, a prospect that has lent itself to some unsavoury controversies.
