He and his brother Arshad Khan[7] produce and direct Pashto films as well. Khan has contributed to the Pashto film industry, headquartered in Peshawar,[8][9] at a time of its revival in Pakistan.

Khan[10] has spoken of the importance of making Pashto films more suitable for city audiences, saying "We cannot limit our films to Pashtun culture as we have to exhibit them in other markets."[11]

In 2015, Khan was prevented from filming in the Hazara District due to government restrictions. Khan released a statement saying that there were only a handful of film makers left in the industry and that the government should support them rather than putting sanctions on them.[12]
