Coke Studio Pakistan (2008)
Coke studio is the best music program ever made...hands down!
Pakistan is a blessed with so much talent and coke studio is a proof. So proud of the producers, cast and crew of all seasons of coke studio. Specially season 14 is going great. Every song is on my Spotify favourites. Coke studio is indeed one of the best things that happened to my beloved Pakistan.
Baaji (2019)
Good effort. A treat to watch.
Overall it's a nice movie but I feel music could have been better. Rest is all great.
Jab Harry Met Sejal (2017)
Most underrated movie of the decade...for obvious reasons.
I'm not sure what compels me to write for this movie after almost 2 years but I guess it's the feel and depth of subject that has clicked. There's nothing special in the storyline but the way how it is told makes it very special. It has plethora of emotions beautifully presented by Imtiaz Ali. If emotions have visual implication, this is it! Wonderful acting by SRK and Anushka. Heart touching lyrics by Irshad and wonderful composition by Pritam add more soul to the subject. Overall it's a great movie that I can watch again and again without being a die hard fan of SRK 😜
Teefa in Trouble (2018)
Brilliant movie. Hats off to Ahsan Rahim and Ali Zafar
I usually don't write reviews for movies but Teefa In Touble has given me a reason to feel proud about Pakistani cinema and it compels me to write few words about my experience. It was a fine Friday noon when me and my friend decided to give it a go. Seriously speaking, neither of us had huge expectations but we both were surprised. This movie has set the bar higher and it is clearly the best Pakistani movie ever with plenty of remarkable moments. Mother-son relationship though short but it is portrayed very beautifully and has a strong message that has the soul of script (no spoilers intended). On screen chemistry between the leads and rest of the supporting cast makes everything fall into place. Many witty jokes uplift the mood and support the story in a balanced way. Action is top notch and worth mentioning here is the cinematography of "sajna door" and "chan ve". This is the first Pakistani movie that has properly managed script, screenplay, background score and cinematography. Songs are well placed and every character is justified. I felt the ending a little bit cliched and a few minutes cut could have concluded it better. In short, Teefa In Trouble is sheer cinematic brilliance and is a great milestone achieved in revival of Pakistani cinema. Ali Zafar in front of the camera as well as behind the screen has proven his mettle. Ahsan Rahim's direction deserves appreciation too. Rather it calls for thumbs up to the whole team. It's not like I haven't watched anything better than this but I am glad to write that this is one of the few remarkable movies by our film industry. It is a complete family entertainer and I highly recommend it. You won't be disappointed. Long live Pakistan.
