A while back Galaxy Lollywood exclusively revealed the power-cast of Bilal Lashari’s Maula Jatt reboot, which included the name of raeeszadi Mahira Khan. There had been no official confirmation on the female leads from any of the parties until now, and recently the rumors of Mahira Khan “pulling out of the project and leaving the production in a fix” surfaced in the media.
Putting an end to the rumor mills, Mahira Khan finally takes the wrap off it and confirms that she had indeed signed the project and has been training to participate in the shoot soon.
While speaking with Aamna Isani for Something Haute (SH), Mahira Khan says, “I am doing Maula Jatt reboot. I am totally on board. It’s also totally out of my comfort zone, so it’s a good challenge.”
This must be a sign of relief for the fans of Mahira Khan. The Raees star will share the screen with Fawad Khan, Hamza Ali Abbasi and Humaima Malik in this mega-budget reboot of Punjabi cult classic, Maula Jatt, written and directed by Bilal Lashari.

Mahira Khan is playing Mukhoo, the love interest of Maula Jatt (Fawad Khan) in the film, which is being shot in its original language that is Punjabi. To improve her elocution she is taking classes, as told by her in the interview to SH. She has never done any Punjabi-speaking character before, so it will be interesting to see how does she pull it off
Mahira Khan is also required to put on some extra weight for the film, which seems a daunting task to her. She told, “Billy (Bilal Lashari) said he wanted more weight but anyone who knows me knows that I can’t possibly eat more than I already do.”
We are looking forward to this amazing project more impatiently than before NOW.
