Why are Pakistani films always hushed out of the media? Does it always fall back on lack of originality and budgets? Would you support a Pakistani film if it managed to get screening in the UK? As Lollywood lovers await the arrival of Larki Punjaban do films like this really shows what modern-day Pakistani society is about? Have the likes of Javid Sheikh's Yeh Dil Aap Ka Huwa come and gone?

Has the quality of the films produced led to an increase in the popularity of TV serials? Why is this film industry turning into a dying trend? Are the people who make these films wasting their time and money?

Some of the people who took part in the discussion, legendary actor Mohammed Ali, Bahaar Begum, artists Mommar Rana, Nirma, Suad and singer Waris Baig along with director Shezad Gul and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan. We also spoke to Pooja Bhatt.
