Early life

Khan was born on 29 November 1981 in Karachi. He originates from the city of Lahore in Punjab, Pakistan.[1] Khan, as his father's job required, spent the earlier years of his life living abroad with his family in Athens, Dubai, Riyadh and then Manchester during the Gulf War, before moving back to Lahore when he was aged 13.[1] His father was born in Patiala, British India (now in Punjab, India) and moved to Pakistan at a young age following the 1947 partition, while his mother's family originated from Lucknow, British India (now in Uttar Pradesh, India).[1] Khan has two sisters, his elder sister Aliya is an architect by profession and his younger sister is a doctor.[2] He is a non-Pashto speaking Pashtun and speaks Punjabi as his first language.[3][4] By age 20, Khan could play the guitar, bass and drums.

I was a terrible computer engineer. I was down and I became an actor to make money."[6] His first performance was amateur acting in a theater play called Spartacus during A-level in 1999.[7][8][9]

Writing for The Indian Express, Ranika Rajani praised Humsafar saying, "The Pakistani drama is a breath of fresh air in comparison to its Indian counterparts." Writing about performances, she said, "The chemistry between Mahira Khan and Fawad Khan is also one of the reasons why Humsafar is a must watch. Both of them convincingly wow you with their performance."[26] Khan next appeared in Sarmad Khoosat's another emotional TV series, Ashk which received a negative review from The Express Tribune critic.[27]

In 2012, Khan played the role of Zaroon Junaid, a member from an affluent family opposite Sanam Saeed in Sultana Siddiqui's family drama TV series Zindagi Gulzar Hai.

Bollywood, debut and recognition (2014–2016)

Khan with Sonam Kapoor at the promotional event of Khoobsurat, 2015

Khan was supposed to make his Bollywood debut in India, after Khuda Kay Liye was released in 2008. But due to unstable political situation between India and Pakistan after the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks, things could not materialize.[34]

In 2014, Khan made his debut in Bollywood with Shashanka Ghosh's comedy-drama film Khoobsurat opposite Sonam Kapoor.[35][36] Khan plays Vikram Singh Rathore, Mili's love interest and the son of her patient.[36] His performance was praised by the critics and noted as one of the highlights of the film. Writing for Zee news, Ritika Handoo described Khan as, "In this film he (Khan) shines above everyone else and how! The man is here to stay - his acting skills are immensely polished and not over-the-top. Fawad fits into the shoes of the royal Prince Vikram with such ease, that it becomes difficult to take eyes off him (sigh)".[37][38] Moreover, the film emerged as a box office success, being declared as a "hit" by various media outlets.[39] The film was particularly well received in the UK, UAE and Pakistan owing to Khan's following in these countries, for his previous television work.[40][41] Sheikh Amjad Rasheed, chairman of the IMGC Global Entertainment, said the response has been outstanding and Khoobsurat has done extremely well.[42]

In early 2016, Khan was seen in a supporting role in Shakun Batra's family drama Kapoor & Sons. The film, which featured Khan alongside an ensemble cast including Rishi Kapoor, Ratna Pathak Shah, Rajat Kapoor, Sidharth Malhotra, and Alia Bhatt, became a commercial success upon its release, and Khan received almost unanimously positive reviews from critics for his portrayal of Rahul Kapoor, a writer who is revealed to be a closeted homosexual.[43][44] Bollywood Hungama praised Khan's performance writing, "As far as performances are concerned, the film totaly belongs to Fawad Khan, Ratna Pathak Shah and Rajat Kapoor".[45] The role of Rahul Kapoor was rejected by six actors as Karan Johar, the producer of the film said, "We went to six actors and after six rejections, I told Shakun Batra (director) that we should drop the idea and he started developing another screenplay. Later, in a flash of thought Fawad came to my mind. I sent him the script, he loved it and said he would do it."[46] Later in 2016, he appeared in a small role in Karan Johar's Ae Dil Hai Mushkil.[47] Following the Uri terror attack, bilateral relations between India and Pakistan took a downturn due to which Indian Motion Picture Producers Association (IMPPA) and 'The Film Producers Guild of India' decided to ban all Pakistani artists working in India till the situation gets normal.[48]

Upcoming projects, Lollywood

In January 2016, Khan played a cameo in Asim Raza's coming-of-age Ho Mann Jahaan.[49] Khan will be next seen in Bilal Lashari's action Maula Jatt 2, the remake of 1979 Lollywood film by the same name, where he will play the lead role of Maula Jatt, previously portrayed by Sultan Rahi.
