In a move to save prominent Bollywood director Karan Johar from financial loss, Indian extremists have decided not to oppose the release of Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, which features Pakistani actor Fawad Khan. The decision was taken after Filmmaker Mukesh Bhatt, President of the Film and Television Producers Guild of India Ltd, assured Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis that the body will not work with Pakistani artists in the future.
After this assurance, the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena led by Raj Thackeray has called off protests and decided not oppose the release of the film. Film Ae Dil Hai Mushkil featuring Ranbir Kapoor, Aishwarya, Anushka Sharma and Fawad Khan is expected to release on October 28.
