Director Karan Johar’s talk show, Koffee with Karan, has ruffled a few feathers in Bollywood over the years. Karan always gets A-list stars to say things they regret later and reveal even the best-kept secrets.

Now, we hear that Fawad Khan will be the first guest on the fifth season the popular chat show. Will Karan be able to get anything out of him?

Fawad has sort of become Karan’s favourite ever since he proved his acting prowess in this year’s hit Kapoor & Sons. Karan also got him to do a special appearance in his upcoming film Ae Dil Hai Mushkil with Aishwarya Rai, Ranbir Kapoor and Anushka Sharma; and has also quite possibly signed him on a mysterious project, Sufi, alongside Katrina Kaif.

Good looks are just an added perk for me: Fawad Khan

Women may be swooning but Fawad Khan doesn’t think he looks good

Fawad’s opening act may disappoint many Shah Rukh Khan fans because there was a buzz in the industry that King Khan will oblige Karan this year too with an appearance on the first episode of the show, like he’s done many times. We hope SRK doesn’t mind this last minute change, if it is happening at all.
