Great stuff, cant wait to see the movie.
I am Proud of you guys..The Whole Team....Hurray !! Congrats !!!
Although it doesn't take away from his talent but Aamina won and yes they both were nominated. @diehard amina and mohib fan:
I had the misfortune of watching Bodyguard. Seriously, movies like these can lower your IQ. Well done censor board, why should we watch anti-Pakistan propaganda movies in our own cinemas. And ET should be ashamed for publishing such a biased view. A handful of cinema owners making a profit should not be the only determining factor
We are learning.
I watched the movie in the festival. It is so beautifully put together and it will touch your heart, everyone will relate to it. Not to minimize everyone else's work in the movie but Aamina Sheikh carried the movie on her shoulders with her beautiful acting. Gohar Rasheed was brilliant too. Direction is something very different from what Pakistanis are used to, because only a good director can take a simple story and make it interesting that you don't feel bored. It's a MUST WATCH. I hope Pakistani cinema authorities get out of inferiority complex and play it in theaters.
I hope this get released in our Cinemas instead of the usual Indian Crap!
some rare good news. . . !!!! (._.)
Really happy guys, I am proud. You would win us Oscar one day!
soooo proud of amina!...mohib and amina are the FIRST and ONLY international award winnin Pakistani 'actor couple'! Immensely talented couple. I hope they do more quality local and international work. Please dont waste away your infinite potential.
