After appearing in an Easter egg in the previous episode, episode 5 of Ms. Marvel introduces Fawad Khan as Hasan – Kamala Khan’s (Iman Vellani) great-grandfather. 

Ms. Marvel’s fifth episode is set before the Partition of Pakistan and India. This is where Hasan meets Aisha (Mehwish Hayat), Kamala’s great-grandmother who is one of the Clandestines. After a meet-cute, their bond turns into a romance and they start a family. Fawad plays the role of an Indian freedom fighter and his scenes have started a fan frenzy. 

A fan wrote, “Look at the charm he brings to the screen. Fawad Khan in Ms Marvel y’all.”
