Arts Council of Pakistan Karachi calls for film submissions for this year's World Culture Festival
Filmmakers from around the world are invited to send in their work for the festival which kicks off on Oct 29.
A resolution calling for a ban on dowry has been submitted in the Punjab Assembly and the Load Wedding cast couldn't be happier.
Many have welcomed the resolution since its submission on Saturday, including actors Mehwish Hayat and Fahad Mustafa:
Fahad Mustafa used the film's title as a pun to make his happy point.
Load Wedding takes on the subject of jahez, which is the real load when arranging a marriage. It very smartly calls out the toxic customs that have taken over a very simple affair, like a brother not being able to marry before his elder sister or the terrible treatment of widows, but most importantly, how dowry can cripple a family and can turn a happy occasion into a stressful one.
