First look of Chaudhry Aslam's biopic is out and it looks badass!

Film stars Tariq Aslam as the late cop, Shamoon Abbasi, Arbaz Khan, Asfar Mani, Adnan Shah Tipu and model Zara Abid

The first poster of the film, Chaudhry - The Martyr based on martyred SSP Chaudhry Aslam, who had rendered his services to the police, has been released.

Aslam, a brave officer of the police department, was considered a symbol of fear for the terrorists. Announcing war against the terrorists even after an attack on his home testifies his gallantry.

The film will shed light from his early life and career to embracing martyrdom.

“90% shooting of the movie is being done in Karachi while 10% will be done in Abbotabad,” shared the director. The movie in addition to depicting Aslam’s life, also showcases a few important incidents that have occurred in Karachi. The project is expected to attract local as well as international viewers.

Services of Special Service Unit (SSU) of the police have also been sought to train the actors. It is pertinent here to mention that Aslam embraced martyrdom on January 9 2014, after succumbing to a terror attack on Lyari Expressway.

Neha Laaj has been roped in as the producer of Chaudhry - The Martyr. The film is being made under the Laaj Production banner and will hit cinemas next year.
