    This issue needed to be talked about and very well it was done here. Baby baji and ashir rafaqt are the highlight of this film. Had me rolling in the isle

    Yet Another EPIC from Nabeel and Fahad!!

    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 :)

    All in all the film was entertaining however the major issue with the movie was its plot which looked scattered followed by its storytelling from highlighting the widow marriage issue then summing it up abruptly & jumping towards the Dowry issue and in-between them a lengthy love story. Dowry was the main plot as movie states 'Load Wedding' but this plot only got intense in last 45mins making it very lengthy movie with the runtime of 2hours 15mins. Performance wise Fahad Mustafa as innocent, responsible Son & Brother with lovable husband was right on target his climax monologue is something you should never miss supported well by Mehwish Hayat as his better half she looked beautiful. Qaiser Piya as the Honest Friend and the narrator of the movie nailed it totally. Fiaza Hassan as Baby Baaji & Noor ul Hassan as Mama were funny including Fahim Khan as Aashiq Bhai.

    A strong film with a strong message

    Producer Fizza Ali Meerza and director Nabeel Qureshi team up yet again with a strong message and a powerful cast to deliver a highly watchable film with a convincing flavour of culture, emotion and authenticity.

    Load Wedding is the story of Raja (Fahad Mustafa) from Nirali, a small town in Central Punjab, Pakistan, where he runs a wedding decoration shop. Raja has an over-weight sister, Farhana (Faiza Hasan) and as per tradition, he cannot get married before she does. Farhana or "Baby Baji" is refused proposals not just because of her weight but also because of the dowry demands of prospective in-laws. This is not the end of Raja's troubles as he has loved Meeru (Mehwish Hayat) since the two were children but life and circumstances prevent them from getting together. In the initial part, Raja cuts a sorry figure as he grapples with various problems, ranging from financial difficulties to coping with orthodox, small-town family values. The film is about his struggles to rise above these obstacles and win the girl he loves.

    Master piece

    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
