longest running film in the history of Pakistani cinema. Since the advent of new-age Pakistani cinema with independent film makers and much improved production techniques, only three movies have managed to cross a 100 days run in cinemas nationwide and Na Maloom Afraad tops the list, whipping films like Waar, O21, Khuda Kay Liye and Main Hoon Shahid Afridi.
The record, which was previously set by Bilal Lashari’s action thriller Waar with a 163 day run, has now been broken by Na Maloom Afraad.
NMA director Nabeel Qureshi enthusiastically shared the achievement on Twitter: “#namaloomafraad becomes the longest running film in pakistan! Breaking the record of #waar 163 days, congrats to the team ! Still going on.”
Released nationwide in October 2014, the film is still running in local cinemas and has grossed over PKR 12.2 crores so far.
Rough estimates show that the film is currently the third highest grossing Pakistani film of all time. Na Maloom Afraad is a tale of three struggling men who run after their individual goals and desires but are brought together by one incident that transform their life completely.
Directed by the young filmmaker Nabeel Qureshi and produced by Fizza Ali Meerza, the film features legendary actor Javed Sheikh alongside Fahad Mustafa, Mohsin Abbas Haider and Urwa Hocane in lead roles.
Sara Loren makes her B-town comeback in Barkhaa
Our Kajraare girl, Sara Loren, is back in Bollywood. She can be seen in the recently
released official trailer of the romantic drama film, Barkhaa, in which she stars as the titular character of a simple girl in the big bad world of glitz and glamour.
The film, which is directed by Shadaab Mirza and produced by Shabana Hashmi, also features Luv Ka The End actor Taaha Shah as the male lead.
According to reports, the movie follows Barkhaa on the twists and turns of her journey to find love and the surprises in store for her once she finds him. The trailer showed how a string of events bring Sara and Taaha closer to each other but destiny and fate has something else decided for them.
The film is also said to feature a track, titled ‘Tu Itni Khoobsurat Hai’, by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan.
The movie has been primarily shot in Himachal Pradesh.
Sara Loren, formerly known as Mona Lizza Hussain, made her film debut in the 2010 romantic thriller Kajraare and later on played a role in 2013 film Murder 3.
Ranbir Kapoor tells mom and dad to back off?
Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor has allegedly warned his parents not to share details
from his personal life on social media. The 32-year old Besharam actor has asked his parents Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh to not upload or post anything related to him.
Known as an active user of social networking website Twitter, veteran actor/director Rishi Kapoor is quite fond of sharing his personal family photographs with fans and perhaps this could be one reason behind Ranbir’s request.
Recently, on the occasion of Holi, Neetu Singh created a stir when she posted a still of him and former flame Deepika Padukone from the song ‘Balam Pichkari’; also, during a house party, Neetu cropped his current significant other, Katrina Kaif, from the frame and shared the edited picture on her account, which also caused a mini-furore.
Well, Ranbir surely doesn’t want any controversy about his personal life. Since his film Bombay Velvet is hitting the cinemas on May 15, maybe he wants to ensure that the limelight stays on his film and role instead of his private life.
