That’s right. The ace playwright, and the actual man behind the character of Pyare Afzal…and his eventual death; Khaleel ur Rehman Qamar, after making a great name for himself at TV, is now scripting work for the big screen for names like Humayun Saeed, Sajjad Gul and himself.
Khaleel-ur-Rehman Qamar; whose ongoing Mahira Khan and Adnan Malik starrer autobiographical serial, Sadqay Tumhare, is on its way of becoming another super hit of Pakistan’s modern TV, revealed in a recent interview with Dawn.com, that he is currently penning three scripts, one of which is for Humayun Saeed, titled, Bablu Bhai.
The project for Sajjad Gul of Evernew Studios; returning to the big screen after a long time, is titled ‘Ishq La Ilaj’, which guessing by its name, is probably going to be a love story.
The third script of his, however, remains untitled, but will be a direction of his own–another debut of his after the scripts.
Khaleel ur Rehman in past has given Pakistani television hits like, Boota from Toba Tek Singh, Landa Bazar, Bunty I Love You, and of course, the most recent, Hamza Ali Abbasi and Ayeza Khan starrer ‘Pyare Afzal’.
Reputed for his dramatic dialogues and remarkably common but unusual stories, some amazing work will be expected from Khaleel’s big screen projects.
