Owing to the immense political pressure mounting up on the presence of Fawad Khan in 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil', Karan Johar has succumbed and hence, Fawad's role will be reduced to a bare minimum in the film.Quotes a source, 'As it is, Fawad had an extended cameo in the film. He plays the man who loves and leaves Anushka Sharma. Now his role is no more than a fleeting appearance.'Shockingly, Fawad's character's nationality has also been altered to an Indian character.
