The actor is no stranger to Filmfare, the Bollywood’s most coveted magazine, considering he was the only Pakistani to grace its cover alone.
Despite an ongoing anti-Pakistan prejudice in India, the ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ actor shared reunion moments with director Karan Johar and designer Manish Malhotra.
The relaunch went star-studded with several prominent celebrities from both countries including Deepika Padukone, Karan Johar, Javed Sheikh, Mehwish Hayat, Dia Mirza, Jackie Shroff, model Hasnain Lehri, and designer Malhotra.
