Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.
Ricardo Daly The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
Bumpy Chip It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
abdrehman-83767 Acting by Mehwish Hayat and Humayun Saeed was amazing. However, Mehwish Hayat as Amal Dastor steals the show and is perfect in her role. Acting by other cast members was up to the mark as well. Storyline and direction is excellent. Pakistani movies like Punjab Nahi Jaungi can easily give tough competition to Bollywood movies in overseas markets. It surely raises the bar for Pakistani cinema. Have watched this movie several times now. Deserves 10/10.
mishii95 *SPOILERS* - Punjab Nahi Jahungi Out of the several wrong messages, here were a few that were outstanding to me. 1: After Mehwish Hayyat breaks up with her boyfriend from London, she agrees to get married to Humayun Saeed right away. You need time to yourself. Figure yourself out. Don't jump into another relationship because you're heartbroken, that is just asking for trouble2: Mehwish Hayyat had been shown to have done a degree in Economics from London. She put her degree to use by helping Humayun Saeed's family with their Dairy Business. Instead of depicting this as her being a smart and independent wife... it was shown as something harmful to your marriage. I understand one should be smart about balancing their career and marriage... but in this movie, TO ME, it just felt like Humayun Saeed was dying to have babies and was not able to acknowledge or appreciate the hard work she put in HIS family's business. I also felt like during some scenes his expressions conveyed an ego complex. 3: "Help me Durdana" o m g. This scene was ridiculous. Your wife is out there slaying the world, so your little attention seeking self decides to try to cheat? ON TOP OF THAT WHEN YOUR WIFE FINDS OUT AND DOESN'T ACCEPT YOUR APOLOGY, YOU SLAP HER?! YOU SLAPPPPPP HER. BECAUSE SHE CHALLENGES YOU? BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T ACCEPT YOUR APOLOGY WHAT WHAT WHAT WHATTTTKJSDFKLJDFKLAJ. 4: Why is there always so much force by the male lead? Why are at times the female lead shown as having no back bone?! Why can't they be shown as being stern on their no?! She doesn't want you. She doesn't want to get back with you. 5: When Humayun Saeed is on the phone with Urwa Hocane and he asks "If i slapped you, would you leave me," Her reply "no I would say once more!" THERE ARE 6 YEAR OLDS IN THE THEATRE WATCHING THIS MOVIE. WHAT ARE YOU TEACHING THEM? ABUSE IN LOVE IS OKAY?!6: Humayun Saeed and Mehwish Hayyat are still in a marriage but she moves back to Karachi. She decides it would be healthy to rekindle old feelings with her ex, uses him to make Humayun Saeed jealous. Immaturity at its finest. Oh and did I mention her plan about wanting to marry her ex after her divorce?! My brain could not handle this.7: LASTLY, Humayun Saeed sheds a few tears, apologizes a couple time, and she accepts him back. Because you know... in love abuse, infidelity, manipulation is completely acceptable !
drammaraziz Overall the movie was very good. I am very happy to see Pakistani industry making movies like this. Very good comedy and romantic story-line. Highly recommended to watch to support Pakistani film industry. If we compare it to the most of the Bollywood movies, I would say that it is better than most of the recent Bollywood movies but yeah I admit the story gives you a feel of typical Indian script. All the characters were perfectly acted upon specially the lead roles.
