Fawad Khan on changing his American accent

Pakistani heartthrob, Fawad Khan has spoke about his strong American accent that he initially had.

In an interview with Society magazine, Khan said that he was referred to as a ‘burger bachcha’ – a term used for English medium kids in Pakistan. He said, “It is actually a very demeaning term. I had this very heavy American accent. Like a Yankee accent. Then I saw a Bollywood award show where some poor expat was talking to a very big Bollywood celebrity in this accent. But the celeb took the piss out of him because of his accent. That day I realised this can turn out to be terrible for me.”

In the same publication, Khan opened up about his shopping antics. He said, “I can’t go shopping without her. I am a timid shopper, who goes into a shop and looks at what my wife’s reaction to things are.”

Khan will next be seen in ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ out this Diwali.
