Sanam Baloch's Ek Thi Marium trailer looks promising

The film leaves a feeling of impending doom and keeps you on your toes

22 Aug, 2016

He did it before, and he does it again; Sarmad Khoosat doesn't fail to disappoint when it comes to his work, and Ek Thi Marium trailer is one such recent example.

The trailer follows the dreams of a Pakistani woman who wishes to become a pilot. In short snippets, the film portrays the hardships and struggles she faces along with doubts that come between her and her journey.

But she refuses to give up, her mother being her support during trying times.

Film Ek Thi Marium is based on the real-life story of Pakistan's first female fighter pilot, Marium Mukhtar. It features Sanam Baloch as the lead actor.

The film is set for release on Defence Day, 6th September to honour the late female pilot.

Why head scarf when you are in Uniform? How many Male pilots wear Taqiyah when they fly? What director is trying to portray here?

Very good work. Hopefully film does justice. Mariam is a hero. Whole of my life I and millions others saw Rashid Minhas as their hero and inspiration. Mariam is proving to be same for millions of kids. Thankyou Rashid n Mariam and so many others. Pakistan survives because of you.

@Sandhu head scarf is required by female pilots due two main reasons. 1) socio religion reason. 2) SUBCONTINENT Girls tend to have long hairs, and they pose a problem while performing there jobs. It can b related to as turbans worn by Sikh. Moreover this is part of the uniform of Pakistan Armed Forces, and we are proud of it.
