The long-awaited film The Legend of Maula Jatt has finally been given the green signal for its premiere this October. The release of its trailer has netizens feeling all kinds of excited — some for the legendary rivalry between Maula Jatt and Noori Natt, some for the chemistry between Fawad Khan and Mahira Khan in their second on screen project together since Humsafar, some for the promising cinematography, and most for all of the above.

The two-and-a-half minute trailer dropped on Sunday and wowed netizens, who are convinced this movie is a sure thing when it comes to cinematic successes. They are gushing over the film but most of all, over Fawad whose screen time may have gone down over the past couple of years but his fandom has only grown.

Activist Shaniera Akram is one of those completely entranced by the glimpse of the movie and thinks it is “just in a different league”.

Netizens are saying if the film turns out as depicted in the trailer, it will be “epic”.

Even those who weren’t interested are now intrigued.

Fans are rejoicing over Fawad’s comeback and are super impressed by his versatility.

But there’s one thing they TRULY can’t get over and it’s Fawad and Mahira’s chemistry. They’re “obsessed”.

This user is not okay with the focus solely being on the onscreen couple though — they think all the projects they’ve done since Humsafar can’t be simply disregarded like that.

There are also fans who are most invested in the rivalry between Fawad and Abbasi.

The man of the hour is also trending in India.

One big upside to the film.

Netizens are hailing the Ms Marvel actor as “the man who can revive our film industry”.

What are you looking forward to the most in The Legend of Maula Jatt?
