Fawad Khan and Sonam Kapoor

MUMBAI: Indian actress Sonam Kapoor and Pakistani heartthrob Fawad Khan will work together in the remake of an ’80s film “Khoobsurat”, dawn.com reported.

In this upcoming comedy, Fawad plays Vikram, an uptight royal, while Sonam plays Mili, a firecracker of a girl who enters the royal household, changes its regimented atmosphere and turns lives upside down with her rebellious feistiness.

The film — set to release on Sept. 19 — is the remake of Hrishikesh Mukherjee’s 1980 hit film starring Rekha, Ashok Kumar and Rakesh Roshan in lead roles.

Experts say the trend of Pakistani and Indian celebrities working together will bridge gap between the two countries.
