The website does not even include all of Syed Noor's films as director. Films like Behram Daku and Buddha Gujar are in the upcomimg projects but the fact is these films were released couple of years back.

Shaby they are more important things in life then dramas. With Afreen Baig no more and if Farooq Mangel is the real culprit then you can forget about these two dramas.

Reema who is currently in Malaysia for the second and final spell of her film. If all goes to plan and the shooting is completed then she is thinking of even releasing her film on Eid-ul-Azha in January. Lets see what happens.

Over the years Bollywood has copied hundered of Pakistani film songs so is nothing new. What gets me is they don't admit to this.

What's even more crazy that our own public just cannot believe that the Indians copy from us. They think that that only we copy.

Imran Malik is no Fahim Burney if he has learnt anything from his great dad Pervez Malik. This film has not been hyped as much as other films and may prove the dark horse for the big eid releases.

All the best to Imran Malik. Love to see his father Pervez Malik direct films again. Our industry is dearly missing him and the likes of S.Suleman and Javed Fazil.

You cannot compare the picture quality of a film by just watching a few songs clips on T.V. Most of the time these songs clips the processing has been completed in Pakistan.

Only once when the post production is done and the final print is shown on the big screen one then can compare. In recent years all the big Urdu films the prints have been pretty good.

Salakhain's print according to the reviews I have read is pretty good.

For the sake of comparison believe it or not but LP and Chalo Ishq Larain's print are much better then YDAKH.

Can't say much about PPP. It is surprising why has Mubassar Luqman gone all quiet on film.

Charizmatic I totally agree with you as I have also seen the song clip of "Jan Leva" and the print is even worse than the normal Pakistani movies.

I did post this in advance that the film was coming on in October a few weeks back.I cant understand what Naheem liked about the film so much. The film was in Punjabi with subtitles which I had no problems with.

The basic theme of the film is that it showed the dark side of the Martial law regime of Zia-ul-Haq and the so called Islamization process that took place under Zia. Also showed the cruelty to women and the minorities in Pakistan. The film ends in 2002 and it shows that Pakistan is still living under the legacy of Zia-ul-Haq.

Without doubt the Zia era was the darkest period in our history and it was during the Zia years that Pakistani Cinema and creative art were killed.

Its a hard hitting film or more of a documentry. Its something which most Pakistanis won't enjoy watching but nothing is distorted and it is all facts regarding the cruel Zia regime.

Finally one thing I cant understand why do our filmmakers always have to show the negitive elements of our society.

Its a awesome film. When ever I read a review of "Salakhain" it makes me proud. It shows yet again we have so much talent in Pakistan. The locations are out of this world. Do we really need to go overseas to shoot for our films. Hats of to the all team of salakain. Cant wait for the release here in the UK.

Why the hell Shehzad Gul criticizing the film Industry. Is he not part of the industry any more. Why does he not start his film and above all when the hell is he going to get the latest eqipment for the film studios.

Evernew Entertainment are the biggest production house in Pakistan and the Guls have made millions from film production, renting out evernew film studios and in the last few years they have gone into drama production. They also have other business interests also.

If they want they can easily revive the film industry especially firstly by atleast getting all the latest film making equipment in Pakistan.

Why are you all obsessed with Dts Sound and film processing from overseas. The fact is we do not have these facilties available in Pakistan. You cannot expect every filmmaker to go to Bangkok or Hong Kong and fork out million of rupees on post production. I personally feel that DTS Sound is only good for action flicks.

We should basically blame the studio owners for the sub-standard equipment. Guys like the Gul brothers owners of Evernew film Studios are at blame. They have been promising the latest equipment for years but nothing has happened.

According to newspaper reports except for Sana all the Pakistani actors have been replaced by Indian actors. I hope this is not true. Javed Shiekh might as well move to India. Why is he so crazy about bollywood. Another chamcha.

Well guys you are all wrong. Jageer is actually a Punjabi film and was to be released on the 10th of September. The film cast is Momi, Saima, Veena Malik and Babar Ali. The film looks like an expensive production.

The unique thing about the film is that "Jageer" is probably the first Punjabi film that the post production has been done overseas. The film is in DTS and the processing has been done abroad.

Indian film actress Kareena Kapoor has signed Javed Sheikh’s upcoming film ‘Khulay Asman Kay Nichay’ (KAKN) in Mumbai. Pakistani film actress Sana will be co-starring with Ms Kapoor.

Javed, who is currently filming in India, said that he would definitely be signing an Indian actress for KAKN but had not signed Ms Kapoor so far. “I am considering a few Indian actresses for a role in my upcoming movie,” Javed told Daily Times in a telephone conversation. “The heroines I have in mind are Kareena Kapoor, Bipasha Basoo, Lara Dutta and Prianka Chopra.” He said that Ms Kapoor’s signing of his film was a “mere rumour” because no agreement had been reached so far.

Javed said that he had just completed the shooting of an Indian flick called ‘Das’ in Canada. He is playing the role of an intelligence officer in the film and his co-stars include Sanjay Dutt, Abhishak Bachan and Esha Deol.

Meera, who was previously signed for the film, has been dropped now that Ms Kapoor has agreed to star in the film, sources said. Sources claim that Sana was not dropped from the project because “she is a close friend of Mr Sheikh and he does not make any films without her”.

“I want to move into the industry following a professional line of action,“Professionalism is necessary if you want to survive in show business.”

“Meera and I were initially signed for the film,” she said. “However, I do not know anything about Mr Sheikh’s change of plans.”

Sana said that she would be “happy” to work with Ms Kapoor. “Mr Sheikh can drop everyone from the project but not me,” she said. “The reason is that we are close friends and Mr Sheikh trusts me a lot. Whether Ms Kapoor works on the film or not, I will still be a part of it.”

She said that she had recently launched her website to allow fans to email her while she was on tour. The website is www.sanaonile.com and has been launched by a Dubai-based company called ‘Humming Bird’.

“With the launch of the website, my fans can now contact me whenver they want,” said Sana. “I would love to answer their emails and messages.”

This is old news and the Pakistani Government has refused to the screening of Dobara in Pakistan. In turn Shashi Rajan has removed the clips featuring Momi from the trailor of the film and also Momi's name does not appear on the publicity posters. Poor Momi.
