Pakistani cinemas are gearing up for an exciting festive season as three major films are set to release on the occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr, promising strong competition at the box office.
Aag Lagay Basti Mein
The crime-comedy film Aag Lagay Basti Mein features popular actors Fahad Mustafa and Mahira Khan in leading roles. The movie has already attracted significant attention due to its energetic trailer and humorous storyline, raising expectations among moviegoers.
Mahira Khan has said that in her upcoming movie “Aag Lage Basti Mein,” she had to go against her natural personality to portray her character. She shared that the role is very different from her previous performances as she had to play a more controversial personality, something that did not come easily to her. However, she said the strong script greatly helped her prepare for the role.
Earlier, at the trailer launch, Fahad Mustafa described the film as a “paisa vasool” (fully entertaining and worth the money) experience.
The film will also mark the big-screen debut of social media star Sumera Shehzadi. Senior actor Javed Sheikh appears as a crime boss while comedian Tabish Hashmi takes on a negative role.
Delhi Gate
Delhi Gate is an action-drama centered around Lahore’s culture and policing system. The cast includes Yasir Khan, Roma Michael, and Shamoon Abbasi. The film will be released in multiple languages, including Urdu, Pashto, and Sindhi, aiming to reach a wider audience nationwide.
Bullah
Veteran actor Shaan Shahid returns to the big screen with the Punjabi action film Bullah, directed by Shoaib Khan. The movie also stars Meera and Saleem Sheikh in key roles.
All three films are expected to bring renewed energy to cinemas during the Eid holidays, with industry observers predicting a tough box office competition as audiences head to theaters for festive entertainment.
