by Momin Ali Munshi

Although the first two quarters of the year 2015 were/are not particularly encouraging for the Pakistani Cinema as only three films have finally made it to the cinemas things are soon about to change.  The drought will soon be over because July is just around the corner and as you all know July is bringing  with itself Eid-ul-Fitr, which is usually the preferred release date chosen by most film producers. Sticking to its filmy quotient this Eid will be no different as it will not only have ARY Films “Wrong Number” hitting cinemas but will also see the HUM Films magnum opus “Bin Roye” being screened in cinemas all over Pakistan.

‘Karachi Se Lahore’ trailer hits the comic bullseye

By Aayan Mirza

Although there is still some time for the actual product to be unveiled, but the recently released trailer of the upcoming film, Karachi Se Lahore, seems to have won the public already.

And why wouldn’t it, the film from the peek through it’s trailer looks to not only have a good portion of organic humour, but also some catchy music, an entertaining cast and an interesting enough plot. All the necessary ingredients to make it a potential blockbuster we say.

Fast & Furious 7 races all the way to the top at Pakistan’s Box-Office.

By Momin Ali Munshi

That Fast & Furious 7 would open to record sales in Pakistan  was a fact that everyone knew. Well the film was an established franchise, easily one of the biggest film franchises in the world, plus the real-life death of Paul Walker( one of the main characters in the film) was further going to add to #Furious7 mania as people would see the film to pay the late actor a tribute. But no one could have thought, even in their wildest dreams, that the film would open in Pakistan the way it has.

Here I would like to mention that its a well  known fact that Bollywood films connect better with the Pakistani audiences as compared to Hollywood or the local counterpart Lollywood films. Why? Well firstly there is  a language barrier, which though is being taken care of with Urdu dubbing, and Bollywood appeals much more to the massed and well Lollywood has not established its firm market as of yet.

To say that it was just another star studded night would be an understatement. For it was like all the stars from the galaxy had landed in Lahore’s Royal Palm this Wednesday for a spectacular night of glitz and glamour. Fashion, Film, Television, Music, you name it and the who’s who from the industry was present. What was the event you ask? Well no, it was not an award ceremony nor was it a  television event rather it was the grand launch event of Samsung’s Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge.

And leading the frontier at this event was our Lollywood industry with actors  from 2015’s prominent releases taking charge at this event. The hosting was done by “Jalaibee’s” Wiqar Ali Khan and “Karachi Se Lahore Tak” star Ayesha Omar. Furthermore Sabeeka Immam , Ahmed Ali Butt, Omair Rana among many others were also there at the event. Here is a little overview of what went down at the event.

The trailer season of the year has the gales of it taking the country entirely under its spell. Every another day there is some trailer of this long awaited film finally coming out, hammering the bells ringing for its soon to be made entry into the arena.

The most recent spell of it perhaps started with the song teaser of Ho Mann Jahan, after which came the teaser trailer of Humayn Saeed’s multi-starer Jawani Phir Nahi Aani, and now the latest of these entries have been made by the two, yet again, long awaited, star-cast laden mega productions, namely, Revenge of the Worthless, and Bin Roye.
