‘JPNA 2’ Signs Supermodel Omer Shahzad

‘JPNA 2’ Signs Supermodel Omer Shahzad

So the sequel to the highest grossing Pakistani movie to date is ready to make headlines again, previously ‘Jawani Phir Nahi Ani 2’ dropped Hamza Ali Abbasi and included Fahad Mustafa later the cast was joined by Mawra Hocane, Kubra Khan and now the film casting team has signed supermodel turned actor Omer Shahzad as well.

Omer Shahzad made his acting debut with Jawad Bashir’s ‘Teri Meri Love Story’ though the part wasn’t very memorable but Omer is hopeful ‘Jawani Phir Nahi Ani 2’ will be a great learning experience.

In a recent interview the actor had the following to say about JPNA 2,

“When Nadeem came to me with this part, he told me a little about it – but what really made me say yes was when he told me that I was perfect for this particular character,”

When talking about playing a lead role Omer said that obviously he wants a movie of his own but before that he wants to polish his skills more,

“The best part is that I get to learn so much. Of course, I do want to (work on a solo lead-film), but all four protagonists in this film are senior actors, so it’s going to be a very different experience altogether. The cast literally brings together my favourite actors together and that would definitely help me grow as an actor.”

When asked what we should be expecting from the sequel Omer said,

“I think this part (of JPNA) is coming up with something very exciting and stirring, I must say it’s been a wonderful experience so far working with the entire crew, here in Turkey. It’s huge, it’s massive and I am truly honoured to be a part of such an amazing team,”

Zhalay Sarhadi to play a complex character in her next

Besides being a model, Zhalay Sarhadi is one of the most versatile actresses in the television industry who has a number of super hit dramas to her credit. Not just TV, the very talented and gorgeous Zhalay earlier impressed us with Jalaibee as well as her recent movie Chalay Thay Saath which had Syra Shahroz and Mansha Pasha sharing the screen space with her . Having loved her in Dil-e-Janam we have some great news for all her fans as she will be seen in Sakina Samo's next along with Aagha Ali and Sarah Khan!

Now initially we had reported the news that Aagha Ali and Sarah Khan are gearing up to appear in a play together; but having spoken to Zhalay recently, we discovered that the main theme of the play is a triangular love story which will involve her as well, paired opposite Aagha.

Wanting to know more about her character we reached out to the lady and this was what Zhalay shared with us,

"My character's name is Mona and she is a woman who is in love but is not blinded by it . A complex character, I'd say. The story is a family drama with focus being more or less on the aftermath of a love triangle."

With Aagha earlier disclosing to us that he's playing a banker named Shahmeer while Sara Khan is all set to play an aggressive housewife named Azra, it will be interesting to see how Zhalay's character Mona will impact the lives of the married couple. Whether she will be involved with Shahmeer before he gets married or will he seek her out because of his aggressive wife, is something we can't wait to see and discover for ourselves soon.

Directed by Sakina Samo, the working title of the play is Dil Ka Chor whose shooting is still going on. A Sadia Jabbar production for A plus with a script penned down by Zanjabeel Asim Shah, the drama is all set to air soon and has us intrigued already.

With Zhalay Sarhadi also working in Shamoon Abbasi's film Bhook we for one cant wait to see her projects soon as the lady is always a delight onscreen.

Mujhe Amreeka Jana Hai is a short film which we cant wait to see

The younger generation in Pakistan is gearing up to make a mark in the world of entertainment by coming up with amazing short films which leaves one stunned. We have the upcoming animated film Allahyar and the Legend of Markhor whose makers are new and have already stunned everyone with their quality of work. Then there is Family Films, a production company set up by students from Iqra Universty who made Arz-e-Pakistan and went on to win the highest award at India Film project as well as the best travel commercial award in Russia. And now gearing up to impress the audience once again, are a bunch of students again from Iqra Universty with their upcoming short film Mujhay Amreeka Jana Hai, the posters of which have already captured our interests.

Even tough the team has just released a poster of the short film, it has managed to intrigue us. The first thing which catches your eye is the detailing and the quality of the picture which makes it hard to believe that this project belongs to students.

So with us wanting to know more we got in touch with the team of Mujhe Amreeka Jana Hai and this was what Maryam Khan shared with us,

"This is a short film which is a group project of the Iqra Universty Film Festival and it is also a part of a mandatory direction, art direction, production design course."

Adding further, she explained, "This is a team of 35 to 40 film and TV students who directly or indirectly are linked to the media and have worked on this short film together which will be shown on the 3rd of January at Nueplex cinemas."

With Shahid Nizami part of the project, we also tried to found out a bit about the story and this is what was told to us by the team.

"The story revolves around a young boy with high aspirations but very little appreciation for his country. In a gripping turn of events, we are trying to portray the story of today's Pakistani youth by instilling social message for our audience."

Written and directed by Hamza Molai, the short film will be played at Nueplex Cinema next year.

So with an intriguing first look of the poster, which was shared by the celebrated director Jami on his social media page, we really are excited to see Mujhe Amreeka Jana Hai in January as it is these fresh movie makers who are the future of our film industry and need our encouragement every step of the way.

Sounding different and interesting, the drama besides the duo will also star Abid Ali, Faisal Rehman and Jahanzeb Gurchani to name a few.

With us loving his dramas especially Guzaarish, we asked Affan what else was he working on besides Chalay Aao?
