Pakistani actor Fawad Khan charged THIS hefty amount for his Bollywood comeback

Pakistan actor Fawad Khan`s Bollywood comeback, Abir Gulaal, is under fire following the Pahalgam terror attack that took place earlier this week. Amid the reports of the film being banned from its Indian release, it has now been reported that Fawad has charged a hefty amount to be a part of the romantic drama, co-starring Vaani Kapoor.

If a report by Siasat is to be believed, the actor, who usually charges about 15-20 lakh INR per TV episode in Pakistan, has signed the film and received a big check. The actor is said to have charged about 5 to 10 crore INR for doing Abir Gulaal, though there has been no confirmation from the actor or the producers of the film on the same.
