Superstar

Thank you for making this wonderful move Momina Duraid Productions and Mohammad Ehtasham uddin, the director. Mahira Khan has never looked better. She looks like a vision and dances like a dream. This will be a game changer movie for her. The chemistry of Noori(Mahira Khan) and Sameer Khan(Bilal Ashraf) is out the roof. Their characters are so in sync and effortlessly blended together. Ali Kazmi is great as always playing Shaan. Azan Sami khan, the music and screen play prodigy- hats off. "Inn Dinoun" and "Be Karan" are my jam these days. Nadeem Baig the legend brings such a heart warming character to life. So good to see Marina Khan in a lovely cameo after eons. Javaid Sheikh and Asma Noor Abbas at their absolute best. I really enjoyed "Chutki's" character, her expressions are on point. Not a big fan of "Dharak Bharak!" but the rest are on my playlist. Good luck team Super Star!

Mahira is not a good choice for the movie she look bit old and unconvincing for the girl next door character like Noorie Blal ashraf is surprising big revelation Nadeem baig , marina khan and Asma abbas completely wasted Ali Kazmi and Aliza shah stand out in their respective parts Music is below average The engaging Bekaran sound track comes in end titles when half of the audience left the hall Overall film work in bits and parts but obviously shallow script and ordinary music will not save this much at the box office Hope eid will benefit this business-wise Eid Mubarik 😊

Superstar has all the trappings of a good film. A potential storyline, a skillful director, A Superstar headlining the film and an amazing soundtrack.. However the film utilizes all of these elements in places and comes the 2nd half, the charm is lost to a rushed ending without much coherence.

Superstar could easily have been the film of the year. However it fails to rise above. The screenplay ruins a potential story in the 2nd half and character motivations are left unexplained. Little time is used on the development than a few unnecessary scenes.

The direction of the film is just adequate. Despite a few creative blocking choices by Ehteshammudin, the rest is handled with ignorance leaving one in doubt whether this was the same director who directed the masterpiece Sadqay Tumharay and the gritty Udaari.

The screenplay sets the story in quite majesty, however after a major plot twist, it never picks itself up. One of the major blunders done was the lack of scenes showing Noor's struggle and Sameer Khan's character which is left mostly in grey. After that a scene here and there, Mahira showing her acting chops, Bilal struggling to deliver, a death scene, An effortless and nostalgic Nadeem Baig and boom; an anticlimactic end, trying to make up for what cannot be redeemed.

However it is not easy to ignore the film's strengths. Thebiggest being Mahira Khan. Like the rest of her films post-Raees, Mahira too is the major draw and saving grace of the film. While given the margin to perform, in just a two minute scene, she leaves you in awe of how much versatile she is i-e the theater sequence. The rest is also handled in subtlety. Despite a few things not visually shown, Khan makes her character relatable and delivers an authentic and strong performance. However she still has to give a career best. Nadeem Baig definitely added grace to the film. The soundtrack was amazing and so was the background score, probably one of the bests from the recent Pakistani films.

Superstar has a well thought out story which the director failed to visually express in all its glory also due to a shoddy screenplay. Had the treatment been better, it would have been the film of the year

Sorry to say, core theme is copied from #Aashiqui2 btw cinematography 10/10. again sorry to say lead actor's entry is not good. again copied from bollywood #Ajay #golmal. bilal ashraf is nervous on his entry. dress 10/10. Kubra looking gorgeous as usual. Mahira looking cool. locations 10/10.
