Uber talented human: Ayesha Omar sings praises of co-star Yasir Hussain

The duo is all set to star in their third onscreen project, Abu Aleeha helmed, 'Taxali'

Actor Ayesha Omar is all praises for her costar, Yasir Hussain. The duo, who is coming together for their third offering together, Abu Aleeha's Taxali, previously worked in the same filmmaker's venture, Kurki, a biopic on Pakistan's most notorious serial killer, Javed Iqbal.

"What a pleasure it is to come together for my third film with this uber-talented human," Omar penned on Instagram while sharing a post Hussain had shared about his latest character in Taxali. "What a brilliant job you have done with this character. Also the best energy on set and so much fun. Can't wait for the world to see it."

The highly anticipated crime-thriller film Taxali has completed its shooting. The star-studded movie features a talented cast, including Mehar Bano, Nayyer Ejaz, Iffat Omar, Iftikhar Thakur, Babar Ali, Umar Aalam and Sheheryar Cheema.

The film explores important societal concerns and promises to be an intense and issue-based project. Written and directed by Aleeha, the film was shot in the historical Walled City of Lahore, adding a unique visual dimension to the film's narrative. It is expected to release around Eidul Azha this year.

Mehar Bano, who plays a young girl from Lahore, praised the director's exceptional work and expressed her excitement about the release of the film while in conversation with a local publication. Waqas Hasan Rizvi, the producer of the film, shared a photo on Instagram with the cast members.

Aleeha stated to a local publication that Taxali is not only a suspense crime thriller but also depicts old Lahore's folk wisdom and humour. He added that each actor's performance in the film would set a new standard in the industry.

"Everyone gave the best performance of their career, and the reason is that their characters were very powerful," he said. Thus, Pakistani cinema fans are eagerly waiting for the release of Taxali, hoping it will live up to its high expectations and critical acclaim.
