Such a good movie, a perfect package. Its a must watch. Its hilarious but also has a deep message.
I am really happy to see a nice pakistani movie.
Pakistan film industry is changing and it is due to this type of movies! Well done team of "Load Wedding". Keep on coming the movies like these :)
Pakistani cinema is evolving and is definitely improving. However, the focus nowadays is to cast beautiful actors, take them to exotic locations, shoot beautiful scenes and make a movie out of it.
Load wedding didn't fall into that trap. The story revolves around a small town, its simple non glamorous people and their relatable issues.
I genuinely laughed at the scenes which were meant to be funny. The acting was decent, the melodrama was acceptable.
The only thing that I didn't like was the fake punjabi accent. If you are making a movie about Punjab then hire actors who can speak the native tongue fluently or can learn to speak it like the locals.
All in all, a very good movie. It had a good story that highlighted a serious social evil. The songs and dances were nice and I really enjoyed the parody of the famous game show guy.
Good work!

It was a master piece very strong story and conveyed in a good way and in good style it's very difficult to put comedy in a serious story
Story is the backbone of a film. The story of this movie was simple yet extraordinary. For the first time ever in the history of modern Pakistani cinema, a film highlighted issues faced by widows, the issue of dowry and the exploitation of people's emotions by the media and tv shows. Acting by Fahad Mustafa was amazing and after watching JPNA 2 and this movie, it made me a fan of him. Mehwish Hayat, like always, is a delight to watch on screen. Hayat's grace and acting skills have considerably enhanced over the years and she is one of the "real" film actresses of Pakistan. I hope she gets to do more movies in the future. Samina Ahmad as the mother played the typical desi mother and flawlessly portayed the character. However, Faiza Hassan as Baby Baji stole the show as she played a sister in distress who is not getting married on time and is fat-shamed most of the time.
Load Wedding takes you to a small Punjabi town of Narali. And for the first time, Punjabis were not stereotyped in any way by portaying them as loud, etc. Direction by Nabeel Qureshi and the storyline along with the cinematography was excellent. After Cake and Motorcycle Girl, this movie might also be a game changer for Pakistani Cinema. I hope this movie is a blockbuster on the box office as well.
Deserves a 10/10.
