Sharmeen    Obaid-Chinoy

Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy
really came into focus with her 2012 Oscar win for Saving Face. The acclaimed director now has co-directed the Ms. Marvel series along with El Arbi, Bilall Fallah and Meera Menon for Disney+.
Ms. Marvel features the MCU’s first Muslim, Pakistan-American superhero, Kamala Khan. The character will feature in
future Marvel movies as well.

Mehreen Jabbar

Mehreen Jabbar has directed some of the most seminal serials and films exploring human relationships. She has won various accolades for her work, but what remains most impressive about Mehreen Jabbar is how her vision for the ordinary transforms it into insightful and exceptional.

Afia Nathaniel

With the 2014 release Dukhtar, Afia Nathaniel told a story that was at once harrowing and warm. While Dukhtar won lots of positive reviews and brilliant feedback, perhaps the biggest compliment to the film was its selection as Pakistan’s entry to the 87th Academy Awards.

Marina Khan

We know her best as the actor with the charm to win all kinds of audience over, but Marina Khan has often brought her particular brand of storytelling and humor to the screen as director too. She directed the Baraat series (Azar, Takka, and Dolly) for Geo, which was widely appreciated and is still a guaranteed entertainer.
