The lead pair are grateful for all the love they are receiving from across the borders and are aware of the online buzz about them sharing the screen space for the first time.
Reacting to Fawad`s humble words, the Raid 2 actress said, "It`s amazing to see the love coming our way. Working with Fawad has been an incredible experience for an artiste like me. He is truly one of a kind. Fawad is super easy to collaborate with, with no ego and no hassle. He is so gifted that you want to level up. I love the way he very organically says his lines during scenes; it looks very natural, doesn`t look performative or rehearsed, and it doesn`t come across like a scripted dialogue."
The first two songs from the movie, Khudaya Ishq and Angreji Rangrasiya, have added fuel to the ongoing excitement. Abir Gulaal is all set to release on May 9 in cinemas near you.
