SpotboyE.com has it that Fawad Khan will be seen as a homosexual character in Shakun Batra's Kapoor And Sons, which also stars Sidharth Malhotra, Alia Bhatt and Rishi Kapoor.
Of course, this will be revealed only at the fag end of the Karan Johar-produced movie.
Said a source, "Many think that Fawad will be romancing Alia in the family drama, but that's not entirely true. While there is some tension between his and Alia's character, Fawad suppresses his sexuality for most part of the film."
The source added that there won't be any graphic lovemaking scenes as there isn't a character shown as Fawad's male lover, but only hinted at.
It is interesting to see Hindi film heroes venture into risque territory, especially Fawad who is so conscious of his largely conservative fan base that he hasn't even kissed on-screen.
