KARACHI: 2016 is already shaping up to be a promising year for Pakistani cinema. With Ho Mann Jahaan ready to hit the screens on January 1, movies like Janaan, Hijrat and Revenge of The Worthless are set to follow suit.
However, cinemagoers can now add another film to the growing list with the Mohib Mirza and Sanam Saeed-starrer Bachaana all set to release in February next year. Speaking to The Express Tribune, director Nasir Khan said, “The film is basically about an Indian woman and a Pakistani man and how they meet in Mauritius and embark on a journey together.”
Describing the movie as a “light-hearted” film similar to other commercial movies that are being made these days, he explained his decision to cast Mohib and Sanam in the lead roles. “For Sanam’s character I wanted someone who had that Indian look whereas for Mohib’s role I wanted someone who was street-smart. Both fit the bill perfectly.” Nasir said with Bachaana the audiences will see Mohib in a new avatar. “He’d be doing comedy and action in a feature film for the very first time.”
The first trailer for the film is expected to be out in January. If everything goes according to plan and the movie does release in February, it may find itself in a box office tussle with Ashir Azeem’s Maalik. The music for Bachaana has been composed by Ali Sher and Symt.
