Cinema and art know no boundaries. This is the one thing which has no limits, and this is proved every time when in our country any serial or film or song which is not from our country gets love. In the year 2014, Zee Channel launched a new channel named Zindagi. This channel had attracted the attention of many people in India. I was also among these people. Those serials used to come on Zindagi which were neither seen nor heard in India before today, and these were Pakistani serials.
The first serial that I watched on Zindagi channel was Zindagi Gulzar Hai. Today many people are crazy about Pakistani serials, but this was the time when not many people knew about Pakistani serials. For the first time in Zindagi Gulzar Hai, I saw a face whose simplicity captivated me and many people like me. I am talking about actor Fawad Khan.
Fawad… whom today’s people know for his films like ‘Kapoor and Sons’, ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ and ‘Khoobsurat’… till the year 2014, he was known for the character Zaroon Junaid played in this serial. Sanam Saeed was in this serial with Fawad. The spirituality and simplicity in this story of Kashaf and Zaroon had won the hearts of many people. Then a phase came and Fawad started appearing in films. Fawad is not an ordinary Pakistani actor… Fawad is the first Pakistani actor to have won an Indian award on Indian soil. Today on his birthday, let us tell you some such untold things about Fawad.
Fawad’s birth and love story
This charming and handsome hunk was born on 29 November 1981 in Karachi. The most special thing about Fawad’s childhood is that his love story is also related to his childhood. Fawad fell in love at the age of 16. He studied from Lahore Grammar School. At the same time, Sadaf was also in the girls branch of the same school. Both of them met when the actor was 16 years old and this was the time when he lost his heart on Sadaf. However, he was of a very shy nature so he did not talk face to face. He chose the medium of online chatting and there he used to talk to Sadaf. However, by this time Fawad was in unrequited love.
The twist in the story came when Fawad met with a terrible accident at the age of 17. During this time, his pancreas got injured and due to this, diabetes problems started. Sadaf did not know about this incident. When Fawad was in the hospital, his friend told that Sadaf was asking about him and it seemed that she too had the same feelings. After this, as soon as he recovered, the actor proposed Sadaf and both got into a relationship.
There was love behind Fawad becoming a singer
Fawad and Sadaf were now together, but Sadaf’s family was not ready for this relationship for marriage. To convince them, Fawad chose singing as his career. Fawad’s voice was very good. The band Paradigm was one of the two rock bands that were famous between 1994 and 2000. The other band was of Ahmed Ali Butt whose name was Entity. Fawad was a part of both. Both the bands together composed the title song for the Pakistani show ‘Jatt and Bond’. It was from here that Fawad’s new band Entity Paradigm started.
Fawad’s debut made him an overnight star
After this, Fawad fulfilled his promise to Sadaf and got married on November 12, 2005 in Karachi. Fawad left the band in 2012 and decided that now he wanted to become an actor. Fawad’s first film was ‘Khuda Ke Liye’. This film became a huge hit and Fawad became a star overnight. Not only in films, Fawad earned a lot of name by working in TV also. Fawad made a place in the list of best actors by working in many shows like ‘Bano’, ‘Humsafar’ and ‘Zindagi Gulzar Hai’, and with this, Fawad became popular in India as well.
The year 2014 was a very important year for Fawad. This year he debuted as the main lead in the Indian film Khoobsurat. His opposite in the film was Sonam Kapoor. The film got a very good response from the people and Fawad became an overnight star in India too. Fawad also received the Filmfare Award for Best Male Debut for this film. He became the first and only Pakistani actor to win this award. After this we also saw Fawad in Ae Dil Hai Mushkil and Kapoor & Sons. His acting in both the films was highly praised. Fawad is known for his sexy roles, and everyone wants to see him back in a Bollywood film soon.
