Re: Is Fawad Khan being disrespectful to his wife by being so close to Sonam Kapoor?
I'm not trying to justify his closeness to any female actress, Indian or otherwise. If there are pics of him standing in close proximity with Mahira or other Pakistani actresses, then what he's doing across the border isn't anything unusual.
I will, however, admit that I am more bothered by Sonam Kapoor than Fawad Khan. I saw these pics yesterday. Seriously, look at the pictures in the links you've posted. He is not leaning into her. SHE is leaning into him.
Again, I am not justifying FK's behavior or decisions...nor am I a die-hard fan of his....but what is he supposed to do? Push her off his shoulder? Scoot away from her each time she stands to close for a picture. Maybe he fears that "snubbing" her would result in her getting revenge and hurting his Bolly career in some way. Again, I'm not defending this view.
I have said many times since the promotion of Khoobsurat and before the release of the movie, that Sonam appears besotted by Fawad. Mesmerized by him. I am not a fan of hers so I don't know if she is just as giggly and attentive and complimentary toward her other male costars. Even her compliments...or rather gushing about his looks...and how he's so admired...I found it cheap. He never complimented her looks, or even her acting in any of the interviews I saw of them. He praised more her energy and certain aspects of her personality....but I did not hear any remarks on her acting skills. So, it's like...why are you gushing so much you fool...when you don't see him doing that with you?
Fawad has a responsibility as well to be mindful of his actions and wife's feelings. But given how snide and catty and jealous the B'wood actresses can get toward each other, I'd like to think that Ms. Sonam herself would not appreciate it if someone like Deepika or Priyanka or Anushka posed "too close" to her future husband or whatever male she's claimed as "her man."
Thanks for your views on the matter! Yeah, that is what bothered me the fact that she was leaning on him. I wouldn't have looked much into it if they were sitting that close and she didn't have her head on his shoulder. I never really thought about what would happen if he did scoot her away so that was a very interesting point. She does seem to have a fascination with Fawad Khan especially since the movie and their 'chemistry' was successful.
I guess its fine because its seems as though Fawad Khan and his wife have a strong mutual bond (even after the fans went crazy over the casting between Mahira Khan and Sanam Baloch). Thank you once again for you opinion as it gave me another prespective on Fawad Khan's view on the matter.
Exactly, I do not understand why she found the need to do that to someone else's husband (She probably met his wife and son). Okay, she does it in one picture but she literally goes closer and closer after every picture. I probably would have different views though if he was a single man. There are pictures where Saba Qamar is leaning on Hamza Ali Abbasi but it didn't irk me because he is a single man (it also would not have mattered if the girl leaning on him was not Pakistani).
