Are Pakistani Films Rising?


Are Pakistani Films Rising? Pakistan has come a long way since it has started making movies. Some movies paved way for the Cinema growth and most significant ones were Na Maloom Afrad, Jawani Phir nhi ani and Karachi Sey Lahore when people really started to believe that we should go to the cinema, now from those movies up till now we got gradual up-gradation in Frames, Cinematography, Actors get ups, and set ups but one thing is continued to be neglected is Screenplay where Bollywood once used to make trash screenplays and cringe worthy content but had changed their game of Screenplays completely, we need that excellence of our dramas scripts and excellence of Hollywood screenplays , which Bollywood strove for.

People who recently visited cinema for the latest three films said that everything was perfect, they perfectly played with colour pallets in the picture, the frames were perfect, the locations were breathtakingly beautiful and the setups were huge the get ups were stunningly beautiful but what do film makers expect from us to keep our brains at home? Some of the Cinema goers said that, you manage to produce high-quality dramas with strong content but you cannot simply produce one good movie a year in terms of content.

They say if we can make good dramas, good films may also be produced, dont make films in hassle make them with brain. Paray Hut Love and Superstar were perfect minus the screen play says public but why did they gross well people want to see cinema and if our producers are of the view that bollywood movies should remain banned forever they must try to make good films, this year viewers missed both Humayun Saeed and Nabeel Qureshi's films, they come up with all the essentials or if they dont have that, they don't even come.

They should take a bow at least they don't fool public, so far it happened. To criticize constructively doesn't mean we are haters, or blogging is just done out of hate, No it is not like that criticism means to tell them to fix the problems to grow well as Hareem did it after parchi which was a disaster, she came up with Heer Maan Ja, which is for sure way better than previous one.

Well Khalil ul Rehman Qamar's movie Kaaf kangna is releasing in October, the cast includes Sami Khan, Ishal and Neelum Munir and we have high expectations in terms of Screenplay. Humayun Saeed has also hired Khalil ul Rehman and Vasay Chauhdary for his upcoming film. Nabeel Qureshi also tweeted to fans that soon our new project will be revealed.

The Audiences crave for the good script even if the production is low at quality, great examples are Siyaah, Shah, Motorcycle Girl, Laal Kabootar. Na Maloom Afraad and Karachi Sey Lahore they were not extravagant with budget. We urge producers to please hire professional writers for films not just some new people who experiment with them at least hire the drama writers.

We really want to see cinema growing but with grace we don't want it to be taken over by foolish minds as once it was taken over by gandaasa culture.

JPNA title song: Finally found the missing piece of the puzzle

KARACHI: If you think upcoming Pakistani film Jawani Phir Nahi Ani(JPNA) is a Bollywood rip-off, you are mistaken.
We can see how the film’s first promo could have led you to that assumption. But the recently released title track of the film is certainly the missing piece of the puzzle we have all been looking for. Directed bySadqe Tumhare actor Adnan Malik, the video is definitely a sight for sore eyes.
It begins with a surprise cameo appearance by renowned actor and TV host Fahad Mustafa. His dialogue Abhi Khatam Nahi Hui Kahani serves its purpose — the best is yet to come.
Behind the curtain, Ahmed Ali Butt — who has written as well as sung the track alongside Faiza Mujahid — looks dapper while doing what he does the best. The ex-member of EP, along with Ismail Tara and Vasay Chaudhry, will take you back to the days of popular sitcom Rubber Band.
It is this kind of originality that we expect from the three and they definitely lived up to our expectations.
You are bound to groove to the catchy beat of the song while the addition of Madam Noor Jahan’s Mundeya is the cherry on the top.
Before you don your critic hat and start bashing Hamza Ali Abbasi, Humayun Saeed, Vasay Chaudhry and Javed Sheikh for asking the girls to “Nach Ke Dekha”…
 …wait till you watch Mehwish Hayat and Sohai Ali Abro doing the same:
 Bushra Ansari is the queen of comedy and she proves herself time and again. We are really looking forward to seeing her in a newly-adopted pixie hair cut:
 Overall, this visual treat leaves you wanting for more and will definitely pull you to the cinema this Eidul Azha.

It’s a wrap for ‘Jawani Phir Nahi Ani’

KARACHI: An adventure comedy flick, Jawani Phir Nahi Ani has finished filming and entered the post-production phase. The film, produced by Humayun Saeed, has been shot extensively in different parts of Thailand and Karachi, stated a press release.
“The final day of the shoot was quite tough as it was very hot in Karachi so it was a relief that it went smoothly,”said  Saeed in a press statement. The team had previously shot most portions in Thailand, which were very enjoyable. “Hamza Ali Abbasi , Ahmed Butt, Vasay C haudhry and I also got our faces clean-shaved for the final portion which was quite fun. The entire team including cast members, the crew and myself are very happy with the final results and excited to see the feedback from audiences now”.
The film, that is Saeed’s latest production after Main Hoon Shahid Afridi, also stars Hamza Ali Abbasi, Vasay Chaudhry, Mehwish Hayat and Ahmed Ali Butt. Speaking to The Express Tribune earlier, Chaudhry, who is also the writer of the film revealed, “I had the idea for Jawani Phir Nahi Ani even before Main Hoon Shahid Afridi happened. But then we put the project on the backseat and started working on MHSA. After we completed that, we decided to revisit this project.”
According to Butt, the film is about “friendship, marriage and life.” A common misperception, comedy films are often predetermined to be no-brainers, but Chaudhry clarified that his film isn’t one of those run-of-the-mill comedies and has a meaty storyline. “It isn’t just a slapstick comedy. It has a proper story arc to it,” he noted.
It will also mark the feature-film directorial debut of Nadeem Baig, who has previously directed sitcoms such as Family Front and Dolly Ki Ayegi Baraat, in addition to directing the popular TV serial Pyaray Afzal. The film is slated to be released on Eidul Azha. The posters and teaser ofJawani Phir Nahi Ani have already created quite a stir.
