Why Fahad Mustafa?

Director and scriptwriter Nabeel Qureshi is asked this question all the time. I always know what he will say in reply: “Why not Fahad Mustafa?”

The last time I asked Nabeel this question, he was working with the actor in last year’s Load Wedding. This time, he has just confirmed Fahad as the hero of his upcoming movie, Quaid-e-Azam Zindabad.

The movie is slotted for an Eid-ul-Azha 2020 release and while the female lead is yet to be confirmed, Fahad is certainly going to be a part of it.

“He’s a good actor. He works hard. We have a great working relationship. Why does everyone ask me this question?” laughs Nabeel.

I ask him a new question then: Filmwala Pictures, the production company owned by Nabeel and Fizza Ali Meerza has also announced another movie scheduled to release in 2020: Fatman. Will Fahad also be the leading man in this other movie?

“We haven’t finalised the cast yet for that movie,” says Nabeel.

Will Quaid-e-Azam Zindabad be a patriotic movie?

“It’s more of an entertainer, packed with action, drama and comedy,” reveals Fizza.

The movie is all set to shoot soon. Fahad’s inclusion in a Filmwala Pictures’ project is a no-brainer but it will be interesting to see who the actor’s leading lady turns out to be this time around.

they should go for an eid ur fitr release since fahad mustafa is a hot commodity during ramazan! also if they go with ARY as their media partner, they could just promote it on jeeto Pakistan and that would be enough given the following that show has in ramazan! (but they would need to watch out for LOMJ which may also come out around the same time!)

I dont watch Pakistani movies. But Actor In Law was amazing. They covered all the grounds and there was no slapstick garbage. Fahd Mustafa and late Om Puri were excellent.
