This movie is simply awesome, full of emotions and Beautiful story-line, it was so simple and I have no words, just amazing!!!!
An excellent outclass classical drama movie. Thanks to Mehreen Jabbar and Salman Ansari for bringing such a nice art project for Pakistanis after so much hard work. Superb direction. Marvellous Music by Shiraz Uppal. Great acting by Hero Adeel and Hareem. Ali Kazmi with superb acting. Please show yourself in a solo appearance now. Mr. Rahat Kazmi your son has some guts. Shaz Khan is also a good introduction. Please sign up a solo project to show us your acting skills. Production was fine. I can say now we can compete Hollywood movies. Keep it up the good work. Please next time chose location in Pakistan to represent the beauty and colors of Pakistan. Wardrobe was good.
A great film, which should set an example.
The Pakistani film revival is now well and truly in full swing. It's safe to say after watching this. A mature story-line, vastly different from the commercial market in Pakistan, this sets the bar with superb acting, script and story telling.
The tying-in and well thought out cultural references were pulled off superbly. The film did drag a little especially towards the end, as there were a number of times scenes felt like the climax of the movie, but were dragged out longer than anticipated.
This is a wonderful example; to show contemporary film making in Pakistan. However, it is a shame that this probably won't appeal to mass market and therefore won't yield as much money at the box office.
I loved it, and would watch it again, it just worked so well on screen.

Adeel once again is very convincing with his acting. He is very natural with this character as well like he was in his previous movie Ho Mann Jahan but Hareem Farooq does not live up to the mark. Story is good somewhat I could relate with few experiences in my life. It was a good movie but could have been better.
Its kind of a film that we normally expect from Mehreen Jabbar. very mature and strong approach towards story line. very powerful direction, very powerful editing. Such kind of movies are taking Pakistan film industry away from pathetic Indian cinema and putting them close to Hollywood industry. Songs are soothing relaxing and beautifully choreographed. splendid acting by everyone especially Sanam Saeed and Hareem Farooq. Unlike Indian movies where all cast suddenly start dancing and forget the whole story line during the songs; music is embedded like dialogues in the story like the way it should be. Most of all its a family movie. There is not even a kiss in the movie. The drawbacks i observed in the movie that they stretched the ending to complete the ending and that's where everything matters. secondly the movie was too predictable because we have seen too many Hollywood movies on the same story line.
