The strong winds blowing on Eid-ul-Azha have removed the dark clouds over the Pakistani film industry and given clear indications of its bright future.
The two major films releasing this Eid drew the masses to the cinema halls, and by doing business of crores in the first week, it has been shown that there is no need to give up on the Pakistani film industry just yet.
Here we are giving a review of the movie ‘Quaid-e-Azam Zindabaad’ and ‘London Nahi Jaon Ga‘ which are the factors that settled cinema and why you should watch these movies.
‘Long live the Quaid-e-Azam’
This film mainly has a social message which is presented by the director Nabil Qureshi very well by sprinkling all the filmy spices.
Gulab (Fahad Mustafa), the main character of the film, is a highly corrupt police officer whose only aim is to collect money. However, his father has been a very honest police officer. This film by Fiza Ali Mirza and Nabeel Qureshi also carries an important social message like their other films. This message is because of corruption and bribery we are offending the founder of Pakistan.
The story of the film is far from reality but very cinematic, but that is what makes it unique.
This film is Fahad Mustafa’s film, in which he was seen in his full career, combining all four elements of action, romance, comedy, dance and transformed into a complete film actor, he told that he is now a superstar.
Mahira Khan looks gorgeous in every frame, her role of a compassionate and animal rights activist which she has done with relish. If you have seen all Mahira Khan movies till date then you will surely understand that she has never seen such a good look before, be it romance or dance, the good thing is that she has done it all in a natural way. However, they did not try to kill too much which made a good impression on the cinema screen.
However, let Mahira Khan’s fans know that her stint in the film is quite short and leaves one wanting as the main character of the story is Fahad Mustafa.
Javed Shaikh’s role in the film must be mentioned, he made the scene interesting whenever he appeared as a Sindhi police constable.
Talking about the music, Ali Zafar’s song ‘Dhak Dhak’ oozes cinematography, Mahira Khan and Fahad Mustafa have a great chemistry in this song. Compared to this, ‘Lotta Re’ is a song full of filmy Thamke.
The action scenes in the film are good and modern technology has been used well which is rare in our films. The story of the film is also fast paced and has a very good presentation on the occasion of Eid.
‘I will not go to London’
Almost three years later, Mehwish Hayat and four years later, Humayun Saeed’s film Cinema, this is enough, but this film is important in the sense that it is one of the films affected by Corona, which was completed this year. Over the years, it was a difficult task to make the film on such a scale that it was done.
Perhaps it would be more appropriate to say that this film is a reboot of ‘Punjab Nahi Jaon Gi’. The characters are similar but the story is very different.
Talking about the story, this story revolves around a 28-year-old murder in Bahawalpur and the resulting enmity. The good thing about the movie is that it has a very indigenous story, but the problem is that it is quite slow and long which feels cumbersome at some points.

But the life of this film is its actors, Humayun Saeed Mehwish Hayat, Kabra Khan apart from Sohail Ahmed also gave a lot of life in it. The lively acting of all of them made the moviegoers stay in the cinema.
Mehwish Hayat once again told why she is the queen of the box office. It is her specialty to play a girl who is burning in the fire of revenge in this excellent way.
Humayun Saeed’s character as Chaudhry Jameel was very similar to Fawad Khaga’s, but this time with more sloppiness and forgetfulness. The troubled and failed lover who is always restless, does not listen to anyone, and this is what is pulling people to the cinema.
It is difficult to create a distinct impression in the presence of Humayun Saeed and Mehwish Hayat, but Kubra Khan has to be praised for adapting herself to the role of a Punjabi girl and making even a short role memorable.
The story will not be complete without mentioning Sohail Ahmed, whose distinctive style has made the cinema hall saffron-crushing and sometimes emotional.
The dialogues of the film are very filmy, and full of humor and this is its biggest success, as the entire film is based on dialogues, although there are two action scenes but they are of limited scale.
The music of the film is a bit dull this time, the songs in earlier films were quite lively. Few scenes in the film are very detailed and at some places the story moves so fast that it leaves questions.
But still it is the best local offering to watch in the cinema and till now it has earned more money than Quaid-e-Azam Zindabaad at the box office.
The audience’s response to the films shown on Eid-ul-Adha these days is proof that cinema is not over yet, the problem was good films, if there is a good film, people will go to the cinema.
After the recently released film policy by the government of Pakistan, there is hope that the number of films being made will increase.
