Love Guru made history last week when its trailer was showcased at New York City’s Times Square, the first time a Pakistani film has ever been featured on the landmark’s giant digital screens. The trailer launch attracted a crowd of onlookers, fans, and members of the South Asian diaspora who gathered to watch the film’s stars unveil the preview in person.
In the upcoming film, Saeed plays the character of a flirt pretending to be a relationship expert who is striving to win over Khan, who is playing an architect.
