I found this article. Hamza himself said on Jeeto Pakistan that he's doing Maula Jutt..and this was 2 months ago. I doubt he'd say that if it wasn't true..but makes me wonder what this article means. Maybe Fawad was approached first?

GL EXCLUSIVE: FAWAD KHAN IN MAULA JUTT?

We have been hearing a lot about Bilal Lashari's Maula Jutt lately. The project is highly anticipated, thanks to the mind-blowing success of Waar, and there have been a bundle of rumours surfacing from time to time regarding the star cast of this mega budgeted project.

An interesting one made headlines a few months back when it was reported that Noor and the troublemaker Gullu Butt had been finally stamped by the ace director Bilal Lashari. Bilal, however, denied all these Chinese whispers and said casting was under way for the Maula Jutt remake, and that no one in particular had been finalised for the lead yet.

But our sources at Galaxy Lollywood now confirm us that Fawad Khan, not very far from now in the past, was approached by Bilal Lashari for the Maula Jutt project and there have been serious considerations between the two regarding the film. Yes! Fawad Khan...for Muala Jutt... Fawad, who is busy in India lately with his Bollywood projects. Fawad Khan and Bial Lashari even met in Bangkok few months ago, of which Ahmed Ali Butt, who was also present there at that time, shared a picture on his Facebook account.

But, on the low side, one of our sources suggests that Fawad is finding it extremely hard to manage the shooting dates of Maula Jutt in his schedule as his endeavors in India are currently occupying most of his time.

Well, we hope some miracle happens and the dream combination of Bilal Lashari and Fawad Khan somehow manages to set our big screens on fire.

For now we would say, stay tuned to this space for more updates.

Hope this 'miracle' doesn't ever happen. It'd be a comedy show otherwise, he isn't cut out to play such raw, tough, aggressive commanding characters with that traditional rural appeal. Unless this is gonna be a modern take on the film and be set in the City. Gullu Butt would be perfect though.

Then again why tinker with such an iconic film. Bad move. Mustafa Qureshi was Mustafa Qureshi he immortalised that character.

They're definitely remaking it. It's confirmed. I think they know this may potentially be a big commercial hit since it is such an iconic film. However, Fawad isn't confirmed for Maula Jutt. I think this article came out in August or so..but, Hamza Ali Abbasi confirmed on a television appearance that he is doing Maula Jutt.

I feel Fawad once may have been a probable for this movie as the article suggests..but, it didn't work out.

I wud love Fawad to do action roles..its nowhere written if an actor excels in one genre he shudnt try any other😃
if i am not wrong thr r two leads in this film one hero other anti-hero but both being leads- i wish this news is true..doesnt matter who gets to play what in it if the ultimate project is good its benefit to all audiences as well as actors and the whole team.

PS: i dont think its a crime to work in any other country, i am under assumption fawad has never said he wont ever be doing pakistani movies or dramas. He in fact have said he wud like to use whatver lil knowledge he gained working in bw to his other projects in pakistan and thats not a bad thing. Any knowledge is good knowledge i believe.
