Aamir Khan has now confirmed that Sunny Deol’s son Karan will be part of the film. Aamir said, “I am so happy that Karan Deol has tested so well for the extremely critical role of Javed. His natural innocence, his sincerity, and his honesty bring a lot to the table. Karan has really applied himself, worked hard, done workshops with ADISHAKTI, rehearsals with Raj, and is giving it his all. Javed is a great part, a very challenging part, and I am sure that with Raj Santoshi to direct him, Karan will nail it.”
Santoshi said, “Lahore 1947 is a very special film. Also, it's a reunion with the most talented people. I worked with Aamir in Andaz Apna Apna and this time, he is collaborating as a producer. With Sunny Deol, we made most loved films like Ghayal, Damini and Ghatak.”
