Waar has so far earned Rs200,145,809 in a little over five weeks of screenings. The film was initially released on 53 screens at 35 cinemas all across Pakistan on Eid-ul-Azha. It is still playing at five different locations and is slated for an international release, meaning it could go on to gross a higher total take from domestic and international screenings.
Bilal Lashari’s film, which had opened to sold out theatres, is still selling 30% to 40% of seats, while newer films such as Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Ram-leela are drawing packed houses. Waar is also expected to see a limited release in India and the UK.

I love this movie by Bilal Lashari. Such kind of movies in Pakistan will restore cinema culture.
