Upcoming Pakistani Films – Details and Trailers
Pakistani film industry has come a long way in the past few years. The journey that started with films like Khuda Ke Liye and Bol is turning out to be one that will change the way people see Pakistani cinema forever. Some of the leading television channels are playing an active role in investing in films because they are getting the results which they aspired for. The actors who were confined to the small screen for years now are getting a chance to spread their wings by getting the opportunity to work on the big screen. We all read about the upcoming films on this website and many others on regular basis but I thought it would be good to make a list of the upcoming films so that the readers would know what the film industry has in store for us and also because I want to know which films are people more excited about.
Mah-e-Meer
Fahad Mustafa’s film career seems to be starting with two of the most awaited films of this year. Mah-e-Meer is a film which is based on the “Kalaam of the famous poet Meer Taqi Meer”. It has a very promising cast with big names like Fahad Mustafa, Iman ali, Aly Khan, Sanam Saeed and Manzar Sehbai to attract the attention of the viewers. The film has been directed by Anjum Shahzad and Sarmad Sehbai; both of them need absolutely no introduction. The film has been produced by Khurram Rana, Sahir Rasheed and Badar Ikram.
The trailer of the film looks dreamy. If you haven’t watched the trailer already, watch it here and share your views about it -
Saya e Khuda e Zuljalal
This film appears to be especially promising because it has been made by the support of the ISPR and Pakistan Air Force. The film has been directed by Umair Fazli and it has been produced by Jehan Films and AR Productions. The leading cast consists of Shaan Shahid, Noor Bukhari, Resham, Shafqat Cheema Umair Sultan, Nayyer Ijaz, Arbaaz Khan and Rambo.
The film promises to take the viewers to those chapters of history of Pakistan that have not been shown on the big or the small screen before.
Hijrat
Hijrat promises to be a “journey that starts with faith and ends with hope”. The film has been written and directed by Farooq Mengal. It has been produced by FM Productions. The story of the film revolves around people who were effected by the Afghan war. The film has been shot in Pakistan and Europe.
Mahlab Mahlab is a romantic film which shows how love can grow amidst hunger and strict customs and traditions. The film has been directed by Asad Jabal and it has been written by Dr. Khalid Ahmed. The cast of the film includes Ayub Khosa , Hannan Sameed , Saboor Ali , Durdana Baloch , Pakiza Khan and Aftab Jabal. It is great to see Ayub Khosa’s talent being recognized in all these movies. Only a very short teaser of the film has been released, you can watch it here -
Kites Grounded This film is based on a theme very different from rest of the films. The film narrates the story of an old man who earned his bread and butter by selling kites. The film shows how his life gets effected when the government imposes a ban on kite flying.
Moor Moor is a Pashto word which means mother. The film has been written & directed by Jamshed Mahmood Raza (Jami). It has been produced by Mandiviwalla Entertainment. The cast of the film includes Hameed Sheikh, Samiya Mumtaz, Shaz Khan, Abdul Qadir, Sonia Hussain, Ayaz Samoo, Nayyar Ijaz, Ishita and Shabbir Rana. The teasers of the movie doesn’t give away much but there is a detailed account of what the movie is about on Wikipedia.
Azaad Azaad does not have a star cast and neither does it boast of a big budget but I found its trailer very intriguing. It is the first movie of its kind which focuses on what goes inside the mind of a serial killer. The tag line of the film is ” Not every man is born a serial killer”. The film has been written, directed and produced by Hassam Khan. The cast consists of Hassam Khan, Hammad Siddiq, Maddi Murtaza, Arsal Hassan, Rose Mohammad, Shameen Khan, Arsal Hassan and Natasha Bayg.
Price Of Honor This film has been written and produced by Afzal M. Khan and Syed Noor has directed the film. The teaser of the film is quite detailed and pretty much tells what the film is about. The main protagonist is a female whose circumstances probably reflect the status of the lower class in our society especially in the rural set up. The film seems to be about the awakening of the weaker class of the society.

The cast of the film consists of Shaan Shahid, Hamayun Saeed Sara Loren, Ayesha Khan, Syed Jibran, Sohaib Khalid, Hamza Ali Abbasi and Imran Patel. The film has been written by Zubair Abbasi.
