Manto

March 19, 2019

I recently watched Manto by Nandita Das and am confused why the Pakistani authorities banned the film. The film tells the life of a great writer who has contributed to Urdu literature since before Partition.

The film presents the harsh reality of what happened post-1947. I hope the government reconsiders its decision and make the film available to the public.
