    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.

    One of the best movies to come out of Pakistan's revived cinema!

    Watched #loadwedding movie in a housefull yesterday and trust me when I say that this @mehwishhayatofficial and @mustafafahad26 starrer is probably one of the best movies to come out of Pakistan's revived cinema. No cheap comedy, no Bollywood-inspired melodrama. Highly entertaining with an important social message! A special shout-out for the highly relatable script and a brilliant supporting cast. A must-watch! @geofilms_geo @loadwedding

    PS: Every family who has a wedding coming up, please go and watch it. You might just do your kids and yourself a favour.
