Bilal Lashari’s action-packed offering illustrates Pakistan’s rocky relationship with neighbouring India. The film, which was recently released in the UAE, has emphasised the harsh reality of the ongoing war against terror in the country. Opinions on the movie varied, as relations between Pakistanis and Indians, who live abroad, are quite amicable in most cases.<br /><br />Pakistani business analyst Zaid Ahmed, 23, who lives in Dubai, said: “The movie is a bit biased against India. But I’m proud of Pakistan for reviving its film industry. I really enjoyed the movie,” according to 7 Days, a UAE-based newspaper.<br /><br />Conversely, 24 year-old Indian Viraj Mehta, currently residing in Dubai, said: “Movies like this will not be understood by South Asians in the UAE because Pakistanis and Indians grow up here together in a friendly manner.”<br /><br />Dubai resident Khadija Syed, from Pakistan, said: “It is the best movie Pakistan has ever shot, but movies like this create difficulties in maintaining peace between the countries. Bollywood has also made controversial films about India and Pakistan, but I don’t think it helps to resolve anything.”<br /><br />The official Facebook page of Waar has more than 200,000 likes and says the film is inspired by true events. Pakistani Dubai resident Farhan Chaudhry commented on the page: “Thanks Bilal Lashari for showing the reality behind some of the terrorist attacks in Pakistan and that the govern¬ment is still reluctant to take the issue to the UN.”<br /><br />Dubai-based Pakistani expat Farhatus Saba said the relationship depicted between India and Pakistan is saddening. “The governments are to blame. If you look at the Indians and Pakistanis living abroad, they are friendly with each other. I’m happy that the Pakistani film industry is improving, but I also hope the relations between these two countries improve.”<br /><br />Published in The Express Tribune, December 19th, 2013.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: 'Segoe UI', helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; padding: 0px 0px 15px;">
<span style="font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Bilal Lashari, the director of Pakistan’s highest grossing movie Waar, has finally revealed his next project which is actually a remake of Lollywood’s Classic movie Maula Jatt.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEio72EtjSSZowIzpOW-FVKpIj0BJUjF0OEM3Bxh4_6CKTi-wCBUtMsIEW0o2ECnp76ht6VdLZ9mWvSIjo77edef43LQb8W-4YbT3DJKDGUb7sNRqJDgi5RfSctg6jMvqIxUbdq72SHRH34C/s1600/Bilal-Lashari-MaulaJatt-Rem.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="276" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEio72EtjSSZowIzpOW-FVKpIj0BJUjF0OEM3Bxh4_6CKTi-wCBUtMsIEW0o2ECnp76ht6VdLZ9mWvSIjo77edef43LQb8W-4YbT3DJKDGUb7sNRqJDgi5RfSctg6jMvqIxUbdq72SHRH34C/s400/Bilal-Lashari-MaulaJatt-Rem.png" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: 'Segoe UI', helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; padding: 0px 0px 15px;">
While talking to Express Tribune, Lashari told, “This will be my take on Gandasa films which are blamed for the death of Lollywood. I think the Gandasa genre was a missed opportunity for Pakistani cinema, and what better choice to utilise it then by paying homage to the cult classic <em style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Maula Jatt</em>.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: 'Segoe UI', helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; padding: 0px 0px 15px;">
According to the director, the new version of Maula Jatt has already been in its pre production phase for last seven months. Surprisingly, the remake of Maula Jatt is also having a budget of millions of dollars which will ensure the production is high notch and as good as his previous movie Waar. Furthermore, he told that the film will be co-produced by an American production house, the name of which can’t be revealed right now.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: 'Segoe UI', helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; padding: 0px 0px 15px;">
Expressing his vision of the new project, Lashari said, “My version of <em style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Maula Jatt</em> will be a visual epic, with less dialogue and many captivating moments. It will be a dark but stylised take on Pakistan’s original film genre.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: 'Segoe UI', helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; padding: 0px 0px 15px;">
The remake of Maula Jatt will be made in Punjabi language and the rights for the same have already been acquired. Currently, Bilal Lashari is looking for fresh faces and actors from Pakistan while the option of having some Bollywood stars is also on the table.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: 'Segoe UI', helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; padding: 0px 0px 15px;">
We wish him best of luck for his new venture and even though it looks riskier but we have complete faith on the capabilities of this talented director.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: 'Segoe UI', helvetica, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; padding: 0px 0px 15px;">

<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 14.399999618530273px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong class="location" style="color: #555555; display: block; float: left; font-size: 13px;">KARACHI: </strong><div style="border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: inherit; font-size: 15px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong style="color: #555555; font-size: 13px;">Has it really been 10 years since <i>Aadat</i> was released? This is the general reaction of the generation that was growing up during the Indus Music (IM) era of Pakistani music. It really is surprising, because apart from being a defining moment in the history of Pakistani pop music, <i>Aadat</i> is still relevant, which is shocking, given that a decade has passed since it first hit the airwaves.</strong></div>
<div style="border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: inherit; font-size: 15px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong style="color: #555555; font-size: 13px;"></strong>It was December 2003 when two novice musicians named Atif Aslam and Goher Mumtaz released <i>Aadat</i> as the duo Jal, a track which not only became the biggest hit of the decade but also gave us the biggest controversy of modern day Pakistani music.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: inherit; font-size: 15px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<i>The Express Tribune</i> spoke to established Pakistani musicians and Atif Aslam himself regarding why this song became such a sensation and about the impact it left on our music industry. Goher Mumtaz, who is now the font man of Jal, refused to give a comment, despite repeated attempts to contact him.</div>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Asad Ahmed, one of the leading guitar players in Pakistan, was perhaps one of the very few people who listened to <i>Aadat</i> before its official release. “I remember Atif and Goher had come to get my feedback on the song through a common acquaintance and they were clueless about music in general and what they had created,” recalls Ahmed.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“We still make fun of our first meeting whenever we interact,” he chuckles, “To be frank, I thought Atif’s voice was great and the song was simple yet catchy, but never knew that it would become such a huge hit. But then, all the game changers of Pakistani pop music have been very simple [compositions] — be it <i>Dil Dil Pakistan</i>, <i>Dekha Na tha</i> by Alamgir or<i>Aadat</i> for that matter”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
The sheer scale of <i>Aadat</i>’s success was unfathomable, even for Atif Aslam. He had realized that the song was gaining popularity after it first aired, but it did not sink in fully until a friend called him from Karachi to tell an interesting story.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; vertical-align: baseline;">
<img alt="" height="400" src="http://pullquotesandexcerpts.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/singar.jpg" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.199999809265137px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;" width="382" /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“I was still aloof about what had just started” recalls Atif. “ Then, one evening , a few months after the release, I got a call from a friend in Karachi who excitedly told me that he’d gone shopping at a mall where he saw some college kids sitting outside playing a guitar and singing. When he got closer, he realized they were singing <i>Aadat</i>. That was the first time I realized that this song was going to be something very special for the Pakistani youth.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Faisal Rafi, a music producer who has worked with acts such as Strings, Karavan and Kaavish to name a few, believes that while <i>Aadat</i> didn’t necessarily offer something new, it did open many other doors for Pakistani musicians.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“I think the most important contribution of <i>Aadat</i> to the local music scene was the fact that it was the first Pop/Rock song to go to go to Bollywood, and opened avenues for every other band/artist [across the border]. We already had the likes of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan going there, but not a young Pop act per say,” says Rafi.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Aslam thoroughly agrees with Rafi’s point regarding <i>Aadat</i> and states that it was a song from where it all began, for him.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“<i>Aadat</i> was where it began for me. It changed my life, its success strengthened my faith and lead me to record my first album, which in turn resulted in my going to India to pursue a career in playback; none of which would have been possible without <i>Aadat</i>,” says Aslam.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
For guitar virtuoso Faraz Anwar, it was the very simple chord progression, one minor chord and two major chords, that he feels not only made people listen to the song but also pick up a guitar to play it, which he believes was the real reason for its popularity.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“It certainly didn’t offer anything new. The chord progression was generic, and Atif’s style of singing was very much inspired by Ali Azmat. It was this combination that really worked for the audience,” says Anwar.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
However, what irks Anwar about the <i>Aadat</i> phenomenon is the fact that the song gave the music industry a formula to follow, and musically Jal wasn’t necessarily a very great example.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“Bands like Jal, who come into the mainstream after a few months of jamming, have always existed. It’s their short-cut to success that gives them so many followers. But at the end of the day there is a fine line between artists and entertainers, and it’s not one that everyone can tread.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Faizan-ul-haque, former VJ on <i>Indus Music </i>[<i>IM</i>]<i> </i>has an interesting take on <i>Aadat</i>.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“Critically speaking, <i>Aadat </i>was not the best song of its time, but it is one that the young public connected with the most,” says Haque.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“It turned Atif, who was hardly a Shafqat on melodies or an Ali Noor or Ali Azmat in terms of image, into an icon. Today, he is the most hardworking of all Pakistani pop singers and looking back now, <i>Aadat </i>seems to be nothing short of genesis.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Aslam, on the other hand, realizes his naivety during his <i>Aadat</i> days and considers the experience one that made him more humble about his music.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“We thought we knew everything, but we were wrong. Such is the joy of teenage hubris. I’ve grown up since then, <i>Aadat</i> and Jal were over a decade ago,” Aslam concludes.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
While Aslam may have moved on, it is undeniable that <i>Aadat</i> had a long reaching effect, one that is still making waves in the industry today.</div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Berlin Sans FB', sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 20.799999237060547px;">“When I began to surf the internet in the late 90s, my searches on Pakistani movies, actors and music failed to provide any results.

His own interest in cinema has been inherent since he was a child. The website, which has been functioning for over a decade, has information on more than 4,000 movies, 4,500 artistes and 6,500 songs, with complete movies for online viewing as well.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Berlin Sans FB', sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 20.799999237060547px;">A young film enthusiast, his grandfather would give him pocket money to buy film editions of Jang, Mashriq, Imrooz, Musawwat and collect weekly film magazines such as Musawar, Tasawur, Tasvir, Mumtaz, Screen Light and later, Nigar. By the time he migrated to Denmark in the 1980s, he had a vast collection of Pakistani films and had collected a large amount of information on local cinema.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Berlin Sans FB', sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 20.799999237060547px;">His passion for cinema inspired a larger endeavour; to make a publicly accessible online archive for Pakistani film. After the relative success of his news-portal Mahzar.dk, he made a separate website for Pakistan Film Magazine in May 2000. The first content was a review of iconic Punjabi film Heer Ranja, with complete film details such as cast credit, music information and unique images from the film which he took from his digital camera.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Berlin Sans FB', sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 20.799999237060547px;">“I have a very strong point-of-view on movie making in Pakistan. I believe that we should make more local movies with small budgets; it will increase the interest in local cinema. We should also change the main theme of our movies, since the most popular subject is our social and cultural problems,” says Iqbal.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Berlin Sans FB', sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 20.799999237060547px;">“Personally, I hate actions movies, but I know that these movies are more appealing to the public. Female cinema-goers prefer romantic and musical movies, and the golden era of the 1950s-70s, consisted widely of these types of movies.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Berlin Sans FB', sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 20.799999237060547px;">After taking initial steps to increase on his website, Iqbal published a complete chronicle of film history dating back to 1948. His source of information was the Urdu film directories, compiled by renowned film journalist Yasin Gojra. Famous journalist and writer Aqeel Abbas Jafri helped him make corrections of dates related to artistes and films.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Berlin Sans FB', sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 20.799999237060547px;">As the site expanded, Iqbal was faced with an issue of technical expertise, in which he had to publish information page by page, making it necessary to develop web design skills. He had heard about online database technology and soon enrolled at Copenhagen University in 2011, where he obtained degrees in both web development and design.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Berlin Sans FB', sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 20.799999237060547px;">He used this newfound expertise to develop a complete database which streamlined his archiving process. This year, the reworked website was completed and uploaded a database of 3000 films from the pre-partition era, marking the celebration of 100 years of cinema.</span></div>

<strong class="location" style="color: #555555; display: block; float: left; font-size: 13px;">LAHORE: </strong><br />
<div style="border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: inherit; font-size: 15px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<strong style="color: #555555; font-size: 13px;">Time and again, people are confronted with choices, but it seems Usman Mukhtar has made a firm decision. Despite being an actor, Mukhtar has followed the director’s path with two feature films already in the making. “I just want to focus on directing,” he remarks. But more than that, the talented director has been garnering quite a lot of attention for his short film, <i>Waking Dead</i>. </strong></div>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Essentially a zombie-comedy, the film’s title song by Natasha Ejaz released this week. “I have known Natasha [for a long time] so I showed her the footage. I asked her if she wanted to try something different, maybe sing a rap song with some techno music in the background,” he says. Mukhtar envisioned the soundtrack to be fun and perky, and so the techno-track was born. The video, which shows two zombies freestyling to techno rap, appears similar to Tom Cruise’s dance sequence in <i>Tropic Thunder</i>.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Even though the song was completely different from what she has done before, Ejaz, too, is positive about Mukhtar’s creativity. “If you have heard my music before, it’s a huge leap. I am not really a rapper and have not played techno, but when I looked at the story, it was comedic and I can relate to that,” says Ejaz, adding that the song is about a girl who falls in love with a zombie. “We already have a lot of hard-hitting films being made but then there is this, which is fun and sort of detached from reality,” she adds. She has collaborated with composer Shaheer Shahid for the song and it took them three months to complete it.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<i>Waking Dead</i> has already been making waves for its peculiar genre. It has been submitted for international film festivals including the Dubai International Film Festival, Gulf Film Festival and Abu Dhabi Film Festival. But the idea for the movie came rather accidentally and with minimum planning.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Mukhtar was holidaying in Dubai last year when he found out that make-up artist Nouf al Jhadhami was in town. He then wondered whether he could tap into Jhadhami’s talent to make a zombie film. “Normally, in Pakistan we don’t find talented prosthetic make-up artists. So I thought I would work on something and edit it when I go home. Even then, we were doing this for free and there was no budget,” asserts Mukhtar. Like his little-known, independent film<i> Black Coffee</i>, which he had made essentially for himself but later released online, this film was also not intended to be big by any means.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; vertical-align: baseline;">
<img alt="" height="202" src="http://pullquotesandexcerpts.files.wordpress.com/2013/11/008.jpg" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 15.199999809265137px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;" width="400" /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
However, as the work progressed the project began to grow. Within three-days, he had hours of footage and found a decent cast which starred UAE-based actors Nitin Mirani, Nadia Williams and Nidhi Jha. Working with limited shooting space, due to legal requirements, he utilised the basement garage of a PR agency and his sister’s apartment in Dubai. “When you are in Dubai, you need permission to shoot anywhere so it limited my options, but we worked through it,” says Mukhtar. He began work on the edit only two months ago. With a score by the talented Abbas Ali Khan, the dialogues are in both English and Urdu.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 0.3em; margin-top: 7px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Meanwhile, Mukhtar has also signed on to direct Anwar Maqsood’s script, <i>Mein Tou Dekhun Ga</i>, which he says is very different from his popular plays on August 14. “The story is about child beggars on the street so it will be completely different. Right now we are in the initial phase so we don’t have an idea of the location, where it will be shot,” says Mukhtar. “There is also another project, which is in the pre-production phase. We are hoping that will be done for 2016, and will have a big budget,” he adds.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin: 7px 0px 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“I have not approached anyone specifically for distribution in India, but I cannot give any more details on that for now,” Lashari tells <i style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">The Express Tribune</i>. Given the theme of the film and the perception that ‘<i style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Waar</i> shows India as cause of nation’s problems’, the director says, “I have no idea how people will react, but it would be great if it ends up being screened. A lot of people are saying it’s never going to happen.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin: 7px 0px 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Bollywood films depicting military or intelligence agents from Pakistan – such as <i style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Ek Tha Tiger</i> and <i style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Agent Vinod</i> – have traditionally not passed the local censor board filters. Lashari feels <i style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Waar</i> could meet a similar fate. “I would love to show the film as it is,” he says. “I think it would get a very interesting reaction. I am curious to know how people will react to it – I don’t think they should react badly.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin: 7px 0px 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
The director remains adamant in his refusal to remove scenes. “I won’t be cutting out any scenes because I can’t think of a way around it,” he says. “I think we have been very subtle,” he says, referring to the portrayal of RAW agents Ramal and Laxmi, who mastermind major terror plots in Waar. “We will probably take out some words. The censor board is yet to see the film. They will watch the unedited version and propose edits. We will amend it accordingly as there is no harm in toning it down for that one market.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin: 7px 0px 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b>Seriously, though – why Indian agents?</b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin: 7px 0px 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Lashari hints that the inclusion of Indian agents in the storyline made the story more “interesting”. “It could have been any other [villain]. But the specific Indian element made it more interesting,” he admits. “I knew people would be intrigued but never thought it would be taken as seriously as it has.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin: 7px 0px 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
While he is aware that it has irked those across the border, he relates an incident at a bookstore, where a group of people approached him with compliments. “They were really happy. One of them said ‘Finally <i style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">humari taraf se bhi jawab gaya</i>’,” he said, referring to Bollywood’s negative portrayal of Pakistan’s institutions.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin: 7px 0px 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“It’s not the reaction I was expecting, but at the same time a part of me thinks there is no harm. They make films like these too, so here is the first from our end. If people are enjoying<i style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Waar</i> as a rebuttal, then that’s okay too.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin: 7px 0px 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Given the tense relations between India and Pakistan and recent skirmishes on the LoC, the director is aware that the message of <i style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Waar</i> may not be warmly welcomed by Indian audiences. “The question is whether they will take it as being just a film. People need to realise this is entertainment – not a documentary. The film is not against the people of India,” he says.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin: 7px 0px 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“The tricky part is the notion of so-called ISPR involvement in the film. If that’s the perception India wants to maintain, then it can be taken as more than just a film,” he continues, adding, “I’ve given up trying to convince people that there is no ISPR involvement in the script or characters. But that would make things boring wouldn’t it?”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin: 7px 0px 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
When asked how he feels about Varma watching a pirated DVD of <i style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Waar</i>, Lashari laughs. “I don’t feel so great about it. We are working on an international release so pirated DVDs obviously don’t help. But I did ask him if it was a good pirated version,” he laughs. “I don’t want people watching a sh***y version.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin: 7px 0px 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
He adds that he called RGV himself. “I was sick of people telling me about the tweets so I thought I would get in touch and make sure it is him,” he shares. “Turns out it was. We had a really good conversation for 15 to 20 minutes. I wanted to accuse him of hijacking my life!”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', times-roman, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin: 7px 0px 0.3em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
As unlikely as it may seem, Lashari hopes to see his film release in India. “If it does get screened, the release in India will be limited. It will not be a mainstream release</div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;">A section of media may have termed his film as anti-India. However,31 year old debutant director Bilal Lashari believes that a lot is being read between the lines without much ado. Though he confesses that there is a subtle hint of select Indian characters causing trouble in Pakistan, Bilal re-emphasises that his is not a propaganda film and has to be looked as a 'high quality' entertainer.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;">"Even I was amazed when I came across an entire 15 minute long video feature that insinuated that </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Waar</i><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"> was anti-India. That is not the case. It is a patriotic film and that's about it. As a matter of fact a few amongst those who have seen the film wondered why the Indian angle was so subtle. They felt that I should have been a lot more vocal. However that's not the way I wanted to narrate the story of </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Waar</i><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;">. If you run an agenda like this for a film, it won't necessarily form connect with the audience. There is a lot more that needs to go in a story than throw in pointers that are provocative," says Bilal from Pakistan. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;">Though the promo of </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Waar</i><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"> never once calls out India as the 'dushmanmulk', the fact that Indian intelligence RAW features prominently in Bilal's film has made a few suspicious around the eventual content. Ironically, the film has been released only in Pakistan so far and hence the only possible source of anyone forming an opinion of any sorts was via pirated copies or online download of illegal software. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;">"We are now looking at the film being released internationally so that it reached out to a larger set of audience and its true worth is seen," says Bilal whose film is enjoying an IMDB rating of over 9 and after beating the opening day record of </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Chennai Express</i><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;">, is also the highest Pakistani film grosser ever. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;">When questioned about the probability of film making it to the Indian theatres despite its volatile content, Bilal says, "I am hopeful that happens. I don't see any reason why that should be a problem. We are in talks with distributors internationally." </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;">It is also expected though that </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Waar</i><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"> may be chopped heavily, if at all it makes it to India, with Censors coming tough on it. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;">Bilal continues in a soft spoken tone, "As I said earlier, the film has a lot to tell on it's own than focus on any agenda or propaganda. I am willing to make adjustments to the copy that reaches India." </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;">Considering the fact that at least two Pakistani films in last few years, </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Bol</i><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"> and </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Khuda Kay Liye</i><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;">, have made a terrific impact with Indian audience, </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Waar</i><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333;"> could well be a welcome addition.</span></b></span></div>
