The recently released trailer for the Mehwish Hayat and Ali Rehman Khan starrer Daghabaaz Dil is out. Many team members from the film took to their social media accounts to post the trailer, with Mehwish being one as well. The caption read, "The trailer of our new film ‘Daghabaaz Dil’ is out now. Releasing this Eidul Fitr in cinemas near you!" Here are five things we know about the film after watching the trailer:

A supernatural affair

The trailer offers an engaging glimpse into what could just be an electrifying cinematic experience. From the onset, viewers are thrust into a world where the line between the supernatural and the mundane blurs, setting the stage for a gripping narrative that combines elements of horror, romance, and family drama.

One of the most captivating aspects of the trailer is its exploration of the supernatural theme, with Mehwish's character seemingly grappling with possession by a jinn. The eerie lighting and haunting imagery, such as the withering plant upon her glance and floating objects, effectively set the tone for a spine-tingling journey into the unknown.

Seeds of conflict

Enter Ali Rehman Khan, whose arrival injects a dose of romantic tension into the narrative. As the reluctant groom-to-be, his character adds an intriguing layer of complexity to the story, particularly in his interactions with Mehwish's character. Their initial clash, wherein Mehwish's character calls out Ali for ogling, sets the stage for a tumultuous relationship fraught with misunderstandings and simmering chemistry.

Intriguing dynamics

The trailer hints at a colourful ensemble cast, with Momin Saqib shining as Ali's best friend. The dynamic between the characters is palpable, offering glimpses of familial conflicts, romantic entanglements, and tests of loyalty with third-party involvements that promise to keep audiences on the edge of their seats.

The marriage ordeal

Amidst the supernatural thrills and romantic drama, the film also appears to tackle themes of societal expectations and the pressure to conform. Mehwish's character's struggle to find acceptance and happiness in the face of societal judgment adds depth to the storyline, making her journey all the more relatable and compelling. It doesn't help that when audiences are informed about Mehwish's character's possession, the primary cause of concern is the fact that she will have trouble getting married.

Big fat wedding

As per the trailer, a big fat Punjabi wedding is to follow, complete with chaos and drama, some of which is also familial. The trailer also hints at action-packed and emotionally charged scenes at some point in the narrative.

All in all, the trailer leaves viewers eagerly anticipating its release this Eidul Fitr. With its captivating blend of supernatural intrigue, romance, and family drama, this film has all the makings of a blockbuster hit that is sure to captivate audiences across Pakistan.
