Fawad Khan is making a much-anticipated return to Bollywood, as he and Vaani Kapoor have reportedly begun shooting for their romantic comedy Abir Gulaal in London. This film marks Khan's first project in Indian cinema since his appearance in Ae Dil Hai Mushkil back in 2016. The film is titled Abir Gulal and is expected to hit theatres in 2025 or 2026, according to a report by Variety.

The shooting commenced on September 28, and the cast and crew are set to film various scenes across London until November 10. A source shared with Mid-Day that the storyline centres around a London-based chef played by Khan and a traditional Indian girl, portrayed by Kapoor, who visits the city.

Notably, Malaika Arora and Ridhi Dogra are also part of the cast and will join the filming in London. After the London schedule, Fawad Khan will return to Pakistan, while the rest of the team will continue filming in Mumbai for an additional week.

Directed by Aarti Bagdi, the romantic comedy is produced by Vivek Agrawal, known for his work on films like Udta Punjab, Super 30, and Vikram Vedha. With a planned wrap-up by 2025, the film aims for a release either later next year or early in 2026.

Although Fawad Khan's film The Legend Of Maula Jatt faced challenges regarding its release in India, his return to Bollywood is eagerly awaited by fans. The film faced opposition from various political factions, which has affected its distribution in the past. Despite the hurdles, Khan's comeback is now well underway and fans are excited to see him back on screen.
