Fawad and my approach to work differ, says Humsafar director

Sarmad, who also helmed Fawad's Pakistani show Ashk in 2012, says the duo enjoyed a nice relationship till Humsafar but things have not been the same between them post the show.
‘I like Fawad as an actor and a star but our approach and our process of working don't match and for me the process of filming a drama or a film is more important than the outcome.
‘Our actor-director relationship was extremely nice till 'Humsafar' but after that I had reservations about a few things with him,’ the 35-year-old director said in a telephonic interview from Karachi.
When asked if the difference means that the two would not pair up for any project in future, Sarmad said, ‘It's nothing like that. There is no animosity between us. I might work with him in future. I feel Fawad, Mahira and I should work together again. But I don't have a feeling that 'Oh, I want to do something with Fawad'. My wish list does not have him.’ The young actor-director, however, says he is very happy with the praise that Fawad has got in India.
