I think 2003 was the worst ever year in the history of Lollywood. During the year 17 Urdu films, 16 Punjabi films and 15 Pushto films were released and no movie was declared a hit.

but 'Commando' is still running...so 'Commando' is a hit movie....

reason is that I think nowadays viewers r so mature than previous,viwers r watching nabor country movie and our directors r new..so their direction is weak..new actor,actress performances is not like film..

not what i heard/read.

here's just one article i read:

'...all these themes are strong enough to evoke passion and consequently appeal for the movie. Sadly for Laaj's writer-director Rauf Khalid this hasn't happened. Even a casual viewing of the film shows that he has only himself to blame for the failure. First, he has tried to do too much. In a short span of three hours, he has attempted, unsuccessfully though, to prove or disprove too many theories - that Muslims are forgiving and considerate, that the British exploited Hindu-Muslim divide to strengthen their rule in India, that goras succeeded because of fifth columnists among us, that Pashtuns fiercely guarded their independence against the colonial invaders, that love knows no differences --the list can go on forever like this.'

the article can be read in full @:

and peeps....most of u know, i'm a HUGE lolly fan. i wanted laaj AND lp AND every other movie 2 do good. unfortunately tho, with the exception of commando, NONE could be labelled as hits, so far. but since some think laaj was better in comparison 2 LP, i thought i'd bring u back down 2 earth!!

better than LP, but a flop nonetheless!!

and ydakh, i'm not disputing your view, but i could say the same abt LP. according to MANY people (on the site of the film) they were very impressed by this movie (in the UK).

angry?! nai jee! and i'm not emotional either. lol

the bottom line is, laaj and larki punjaban both had potential and both were appreciated by most who watched them. but regardless, they flopped. the end result: this ain't good 4 the industry, cause BOTH were touted to break records and BOTH failed to do so, hence 2003 being the worst year ever 4 lolly, as u said!! so why single out lp, like many, including yourself seem 2 be doing??!!NFAKFan38006.2230208333
