Teri Meri Kahaniyaan

Zin Mahal had the most interesting premise and plot with some comic moments. It takes on social issues like homelessness, superstition with a touch of humor. All the primary actors delivered good performances. Pasoori was a fun ride, provided much needed light hearted buffer between two intense films and made the viewing experience better. Performance wise again, all the actors delivered specially Ramsha. Ek Sau Taeeswan was intense drama about underbelly of marital relatioinships exploring (in)fidelity with many wordplays in place. Mehwish Hayat's character Sadaf was the driving force, got most of the punchline dialogues and she carried the film well on her shoulders. Wahaj Ali's character Asad was more of a foil and on a listening/realization trip. He had slightly less room for performance and did well with what he had.

The format of three short films was like a buffet in a restaurant and provided interspersing combination of different tastes that I thought worked well for the viewing experience.

Not seen a Indian/ Pakistan film with three different tales, an anthology, so this was a treat. And it's good. The first tale is a family who are down and out, living where ever, with some dark comedy it has some supernatural themes in it, and is the longest of the three, lasting an hour. The ending is gold, and this tale feels like a British comedy of old.

The second is comedy of errors like and the most like the Ealing comedies from the 50's, much like the first one. It's all about a wedding, but has all sorts of things going on This one starts with a great dance number and has the most songs in it, and is the most colourful tale on show here.

The third and last is very much 'Brief Encounter', but obviously with some changes, because of the setting and with some very smart writing and direction.

All three stories are good, nothing is wasted at all, but it's not an 8/10 film, as it does fall short here and there, so I gave it 7/10.

Apart from a few truly stellar cinematic films (Maula Jutt, Moor, Manto, Waar, Namaloom Afraad, Laal Kabootar), Pakistani Cinema is confused. Most films are like directors trying to copy-paste a TV drama onto the big screen.

The same is the case with this anthology. They are a good collection of short films, but definitely not for the big screen. The second film was essentially an extended ad for Cadbury Dairy Milk, it was so bad. This should have been a digital release. Save for some excellent cinematic scenes at the end of the third short film, nothing was truly cinema eye-candy.

Pakistani directors should realize that making movies for the cinema is different than making them for the TV/Computer screen. There is a thing called cinematic experience.

Also, Khalilur Rehman should stick to writing cringey, misogynistic dramas.

Definitely not one to be watched in cinemas, see it digitally or on TV.

So i went to watch a pakistani film in cinema after 7 years and i only went for Wahaj Ali.

Jin mahal - was very interesting and funny, Mr and Mrs mani were amazing, the ending made me jump out my seat.

Pasoori - i found this story a bit boring, Ramsha i felt was a bit OTT, sheheryar was ok, i think babar Ali was the best character in this story.

Ek Sau Taeeswan - wahaj ali was amazing as always, mehvish i did not like at all. Like ramsha she was also very OTT, The way her character was flirting i didnt like that. Praising herself non stop. I felt wahaj had less dialogues and less screen time. Hopefully he will have more in his next movie .

Sadafs husbands part and his kuttiya Girlfriends part was unnecessary.

I liked jin mahal the most , then Ek Sau Taeeswan and lastly pasoori

It was paisa vasool movie. Overall i enjoyed it. I rate all movies i watch n i rated this 7/10.

Just enjoyed 3rd part of the movie, but the producers has given more dialogues and importance to Mehwish as compared to wahaj , that is quite unfair , it was his first debut film but I loved it his eyes expression his phenomenal expression loved it! Hira and Mani movie was not a horror for me! Some dialogues by khail ur Rehman didn't liked by me , but it is a good try by Pakistani cinema to promote our industry, from all Pakistani films being onaired now a days in cinema it is better from all that u can go and watch it but I saw people are more interested in watching new Indianan movie today in cinema, houses are full there.
