The Legend of Maula Jatt: How Did People Feel About It?

Yesterday, the movie “The Legend of Maula Jatt” had its first showing in Lahore. The stars were excited to show off their most-anticipated project. Well, the movie came out today, too, and a lot of people are going to see it. The public is also coming up with exciting reviews right away.

The movie “The Legend of Maula Jatt” has been shown in more theaters, and reports say it’s off to a good start all over the world. The actors in the movie were very happy, and the public and critics are giving their project high marks.

The public loved the movie and is praising the plot because the old Maula Jatt was a cult classic. However, the public has shown that the movie is not a remake of the old Maula Jatt. Some people didn’t like the movie, but a lot of people did and thought it was a good movie-going experience. One fan said, “Whoever wants reviews, my request is that they watch the movie without being influenced by reviews!” It’s a good thing to do even if no one tells you to. GO WATCH IT”. Another said, “THE CULT OF MAULA JATT! My thoughts on this historic moment when “MaulaJatt,” which many of us grew up with and fell in love with, will be available to a new generation of moviegoers.

Not too many people thought the movie could have been better. One person on Twitter said, “The movie doesn’t fit Punjabi medieval culture.” They got the idea from gladiators and coliseums in Rome, which are not common in India/Pak. The producer forgot that Maula Jatt was from Punjab and not from Rome. One person on Twitter said, “It’s been half the movie so far, and I still don’t understand the story.”

Did ‘Love Guru’ Make a Huge Amount of Money?

The romantic comedy film Love Guru, which hit cinemas on Eid-ul-Azha, has scored a major box office win, earning an impressive Rs 55 crore worldwide.

Audiences in Pakistan and abroad are celebrating the film, making it one of the top-grossing Pakistani films of the year. Over 60 cinemas across the country continue to screen Love Guru, with packed houses and glowing reviews pouring in.

Filmmaker Nadeem Baig directed the movie, while Wasay Chaudhry—known for Jawani Phir Nahi Ani—wrote the script. Set in London, the story follows Mahira Khan’s character Sofia Khan, a bold Pashtun architect living in the U.S., and Humayun Saeed, who plays the charming flirt dubbed “Love Guru.” His life takes an unexpected turn when he meets Sofia.

Alongside its leads, the film features performances by Momina Iqbal, Mira Sethi, Sohai Ali Abro, Amara Malik, Adnan Shah Tipu, Marina Khan, Usman Peerzada, and Javed Sheikh. A surprise cameo by another major Pakistani actor has also thrilled fans.

Producers Humayun Saeed, Shehzad Nasib, and Jerjees Seja—backed by Salman Iqbal as executive producer—brought the film to life under the ARY Films banner. They combined Punjabi and Pashto humor to appeal to a broad audience base.

According to the producers, Love Guru made Rs 29 crore at the Pakistani box office and another Rs 26 crore overseas, totaling Rs 55 crore. Many see this success as a hopeful sign for the revival of Lollywood, which has faced tough times in recent years.

Although the film still falls short of The Legend of Maula Jatt, which grossed over Rs 4 billion globally, Love Guru proves that star power, compelling storytelling, and strong production values can still draw crowds to cinemas.

Nasir Adeeb On Daughter’s Support For Reema Amidst Controversy

Nasir Adeeb is a veteran Pakistani film writer who has crafted the stories of numerous hit Pakistani films. His famous films are Jungle Ka Qanoon, Jarnel Singh, Sher Khan, Thakur, Dushman, Silsila, Qalandar, Maula Jutt and The Legend of Maula Jatt. His film Maula Jutt, starring Sultan Rahi and Mustafa Qureshi, made him a timeless star of the Pakistani film industry. He is currently garnering recognition due to his famous podcast for Suno TV in which he reveals facts about Pakistani film industry and actors.

Nasir Adeeb recently appeared in Shaan e Sahoor with her daughter Zoya Nasir. In the show, he opened up about his daughter’s stance regarding his viral statement about Reema.

Talking about it, Nasir Adeeb said, “She made me realize that it was a mistake, and I am proud of the fact that she supported Reema on whatever I said, although, I never intended to hurt anyone. I also apologized for it. However, what made me most proud was her attitude that she supported the other party. I am her father, but I am also a human being who commits mistakes. Although, I don’t believe in spreading lies, I always spoke truth but now I understand that not every truth should be shared on TV.”

Zoya Nasir also said, “It’s a channel where my father works. He goes there and talks, his speech is recorded there and he comes back. At that time, we used to have a very contained environment like our drawing room. Nowadays, there is a fact checking on internet, so we have to be careful while speaking, as things stay on the internet forever. You shouldn’t say anything that could have a negative impact online.”

Syed Noor On Importance Of Looks In Showbiz

Syed Noor is the ace director of Pakistani cinema. His success rate was massive and he introduced so many stars on silver screen. He is the name behind some of the most successful films from the country and he is still as relevant as a celebrity as he was when he started out in the industry. He gave his two cents about Pakistani films and stars as he appeared as a guest on Hina Niazi’s show.

Syed Noor was asked about the looks of the actors and he had a very interesting take. He said a hero cannot be a good actor just based on his looks. He thinks the best ever actors in the world were not too good looking. They focused on their craft which made them successful but his thoughts on looks of female stars differed a bit.

He added that if a female actress looks good, it makes it easier for her to succeed in acting as the audience is more welcoming. This is what he thinks.
