It’s truly been a while since we watched a horror film of our own in cinemas. ‘Horror’ hasn’t been quite a popular genre amongst our filmmakers over the years. Even if we go back in time; in the ‘golden era’, it remained on the neglected side.
But time is changing and its changing fast. We saw the first prominent work of the decade on the lines of horror back in 2007 when Zibahkhana came out. But soon we would have one other horror film of our own (hopefully a good one) to brag about in film circles. The name as most of you know is Siyaah.
Film is directed by Azfar Jaffri (releatively a new name), produced by Imran Raza Kazmi and written by the famous Vlogger and now an emerging TV star, Osman Khalid Butt.
Siyaah with a more theatre dominated cast includes actors like, Hareem Farooq, Qazi Jabbar, Mahnoor Aslam and many other new names.
It basically tells the tale of a happy modern family that gets haunted by its own disbelieves. Apart from dealing with the topics of black magic and exorcism, it will also try to portray the typical mindset here on the subject. The film will also show how some decisions can change your life entirely from what you have known it before, placing you on the pitch black circles of life where the normalcy becomes an unquenched thirst.
Hitting the cinemas countrywide today, film hopes to garner the attension of the long unserved Pakistani cinema loving community. Supported by Cinepax, the film along with other major cities will also be screened at Cinepax Gujranwala and in Peshawar through special screenings at different universities.
We at Galaxy Lollywood wish all the very best of luck to the film and its team, and hope to see it creating its own mark on the box office.
