Saba Qamar is one star who we would not mind seeing more of. After her effervescent performance in Lahore Se Aagay, an intense one in Cheekh and what seems to be a promising act in upcoming Kamli, the star is set to be the leading lady in yet another project where Zahid Ahmed and Syed Jibran have been signed as the male leads.
Oh, lest we forget – it is important to remind the readers that the project in question is not a drama serial, but a film, although some casting choices made us think otherwise, too. The project we are talking about is the upcoming feature film being produced by Jamil Baig and Hassan Zia which Saba signed just last week.

Before Zahid Ahmed, Bilal Ashraf was rumored to be the lead, however, the Ishq Zah-e-Naseeb actor has now been taken on board for the project. Interestingly, Saba Qamar has already shared the screen space with Zahid in television shows Sangat and Besharam, with the former show landing itself in quite a bit of controversy for reinforcing patriarchal themes around rape. Coming back to the film, it is said to be an unusual comedy and will be directed by newbie Saqib Khan and is written by Mohsin Ali.
With the pre-production of the film complete, it is set to go on floors soon and is planned for an Eid-ul-Azha release later this year. If that does indeed happen, the film would be Saba Qamar’s second release after Sarmad Khoosat’s Kamli, which is currently under post-production. With the diva set to shine on screen again along with her two male co-actors, we will be keeping a close tab on this film.
Stay tuned to Galaxy Lollywood for the latest on this film and a lot more!
