Genius story and extraordinary acting by Fahad Mustafa.
I feel like whoever doesn't watch it will miss out.
The movie is based in Karachi, Pakistan and is true to the culture of the city. It's genuine and heart-warming.
I'd recommend it it to non-Pakistanis too if you're going for something unique and entertaining.
The songs are on point too with Rahat FAK and Atif Aslam.
The standout part of the film has to be the plot. The story is unparalleled. The wannabe actor embarks on a career as a lawyer using his acting skills to be successful. The film takes a sharp turn when the hero's credentials are questioned, although he fought for the masses against the powerful. The hero's acting is flawless and he is supported well by the female lead and the others. There's a lot of comedy that complements the story. The movie appeals to your emotions too and delivers a message. The songs make you wanna dance.
It leaves you with good vibes.

Talk about the Pakistani Movies, Waar initiated the message that Pakistan can make the much better movies. By leading message forward Pakistan developed the several good movies and they achieved the healthy box office report. By seeing this result, it seems our entire Drama industry is moving towards to Movie industry, that's unfortunate. That is why you can feel drama touch in Pakistan Movie Industry. Only few movies are being made that we can say its purely a movie that deserve to watch at big screen and YES! Actor in Law is among of them.
Actor in law is moving towards a person named Shan Mirza that wanted to be a actor but some circumstances he couldn't be a actor but a lawyer. That is played very well by Fahad Mustafa. So Shan Mirza utilized his acting skills in court, in very amazing way that will make you enjoy the movie. Talk about other lead actors, I wasn't expecting good from Mehwish Hayat but she also did her job and played a lady that wants to fight with the basic issues facing by people of the country. Talk about Om Puri, I don't need to say anything about his as he had small but very important roll and he done it very well.
Overall it was a very good comedy movie with some emotional scene in the end, you can enjoy with the pop corn. So I suggest go and watch this one.
But this was not just the comedy movie, there were some serious messages in the movie that I request you all to consider it.

1 Hour 58 minutes approx the story telling and punchy lines made me amused ,the intro of all characters is executed very well,the story is very relate-able and consequences occurs are very much near to common man lives. Shan Mirza's dream is to be an actor (Fahad Mustafa)the story amaze you when his struggle goes beyond the limits and Meenu Screwwala stand by him (Mehwish Hayat).Muddasir Sultan (Aly Khan)plays the antagonist in the movie along with Mehbbob Bhai (Saleem Miraj).Rafaqat Mirza (Om Puri)plays the role of the father of the protagonist shan mirza who is not so happy with the profession of his son.The story revolves around these characters the performances are at its best,light romance,fancy costumes and good dialogues movie is full of surprises. Completely Masala Movie.
The whole movies was great to watch. The acting of mehvish Hayyat is awesome. The lines are excellent. The superb performance by Fahad Mustafa is treat to watch. Nice to see Om puri, he has done a great job by pulling off the role. A great entertainer. Some special appearance of celebrities made the movie look even better. Must watch a complete Entertainment. Best comedy, great laughter, altogether the film is a must watch. The location showed the old city of lights Karachi, some excellent, popular places are sot beautifully. The time spend at theater watching Actor is Law is worth spending. Highly recommended to watch and enjoy the comedy especially mehvish Hayyatt Performanc is worth mentioning.
