Sohai-starrer 'Motorcycle Girl' slated for release in April
LAHORE: Pakistani actress Sohai Ali Abro is starring in a Zenith Irfan biopic named ‘Motorcycle Girl’ that filmmakers have confirmed will see the light of day on April 20.
Zenith Irfan was the first woman to undertake a solo journey across the country’s north.
Her daring adventures, documented via Facebook on her blog as 1 Girl, 2 Wheels, have received tremendous appreciation from the public.
The feature film is written and directed by Adnan Sarwar whose first feature film entitled 'Shah' was a biopic based on Pakistani Olympian boxer Hussain Shah.
"The remarkable story of what Zenith did at such a young age caught my attention after Shah and I knew it was the right subject to turn into a film", revealed Adnan Sarwar. "I have scripted a fictional world around the core true story of her journey and I hope that Motorcycle Girl will help further the cause of women empowerment in Pakistan".
In order to fit into the challenging character, Sohai received rigorous motorcycle training and also accompanied Zenith Irfan on a bike journey from Lahore to Khunjerab during the shooting of the film.
