MEIN PUNJAB NAHIN JAON GEE…………. (8.0/10)

is not one of those usual romantic films. The clash of cultures, the widening gap between parents and kids, MPNJG tackles it all. At the same time, it evokes some serious feelings at vital points in the story. The movie from its first scene till end is a sure cinematic beauty , as for as camera work is concerned. A top notch cinematography captures a outclass beauty of PUNJAB. Story on the front look seems to be a light comedy but underneath the skin of comics some real story unfolds explaining some very serious issue of our culture in a light but also in a serious manner. The story is about HS and MH, where HS is a typical feudal lord of Punjab while MH , cousin is a western oriented girl comes from London after completing her study. Two distinct cultures having their own flavors come together with a twist. Entry of Wasay in the movie makes story interesting . Apart of great camera work , dialogues also stands out, some serious lines along with some taunting comics really creates a nice combo for any movie goer. After JPNA , Humayun Saeed along with the director Nadeem Baig has done another marvelous job. Both of them needs a pat on their backs. Good music , nice story and a serious message definitely makes MPNJG one of the finest movies from south Asia. From acting everyone delivers a great performance. HS does really proves his acting skills , MH well really a great actor she is, Hurwa Hoccane also plays her role very well, Azfar Rehman (Wasay ) is also very decent, all the supporting cast are simply brilliant. Ahmed Ali Butt I think was underutilized. Some great nice dialogues, a serious underpinning message wrapped in a comedy makes MPNJG definitely highly recommended movie to watch!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Go and watch this movie to HELP our cinema!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice movie with full of funny dialogues. There was houseful here in Doha Qatar to watch this movie. Enjoyed a lot. Acting of Hummayo Saeed and Sohail alias Sohail is awesome. Never Say "Help Me, Durdana" was my fb status after watching this movie. I have never watched such a good movie in Lollywood. You will enjoy!!!!!!

Acting is Superb as Legendary Pakistani Actors have been chosen for the Film (8/10). Screen Play and Background Places are fascinating and attractive(9/10).Good camera work (7/10). Music is Good (6.5/10) but the choreography and dance are poor (5/10) apart from one last rocking song (7.5/10).

A story is a backbone of the movie. Khalil ur Rehman Qamar is one of the best and few writers I like. However, the story of the movie is a sheer disappointment for an extraordinary writer (4/10). The story looks haphazard and without logic and flow.

Too many comedy actors but dialogues are not meeting the comedy standards of Legends like Sohail Ahmed, Saba Qamar, Waseem Abbas, Behroz Sabazwari, and Ahmed Ali But (4/10). I think the writer could take help from these legends to improve the comic sense of the movie.

The writer opened many fronts but fails to fill the logic and Gap. For example, following questions needs an explanation. 1. What is Durdana's end result? 2. What did become of Dairy Farm? 3. Why the Ch. Fawad likes to be beaten by Waseh? 4. Why Amal agree to reconcile at the end?

Overall, Punjab Nahin Jaongi is an average movie (55~60/100)

I was a little hesitant taking my entire family to watch this movie but the movie came as a total surprise full of comedy, entertainment and delivered some really strong messages. Loved the dresses and songs in the movie. Each and every character justified their role. Dialogue delivery was astounding. I would definitely recommend to all movie lovers to go and watch this delight in cinemas.

This movie is really a treat for cinema loving families. The dialogues are very strong. But the script of the movie is very weak. All the emphasis is on the character Fawad Khagga which is written very brilliantly. I believe same hard work was required to write the other characters, esp. some characters like parents of leading actor and actress are just a show piece. Though with very good cinematography, movie lacks in clarity and is not technically very strong esp. when you perform a song in one voice on two different characters. But one thing is for sure, you leave the cinema with broad smile on your face and with some good dialogues like "help me durdana", "good question" in your mind

Punjab Nahi Jaungi (PNJ) one of the best movies ever produced in the history of Pakistan's Film Industry. The movie is not only a source of fun and pleasure but also an indicator to social problems like alcohol consumption, post marital relationships, gender equality and divorce. Apart from this, the character of Bebo Gi, perfectly promotes support for love, for language and for nationalism. However, Mehtab Khagga, the elder of the family, grandfather of Fawad Khagga, is encouraging women empowerment in the country, for a better Pakistan.

With humor and love, PNJ brings to limelight the social issues and shows inevitability to eradicate social evils.

The scene after the comic "Help Me Durdana" where Mehwish Hayat with her dialogue delivery and top notch acting outshines everyone is the only scene which stands out for a film which everyone was bragging about but Punjab Nahi Jaungi comes with a somewhat already seen story but the same cannot be said for its dialogues where Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar once again redefines himself that he probably is one of the best drama writers but his craft is weak when it comes to unrealistic sequences and really illogical ending.

When it comes to acting you cannot decide who stands out in the film because each and every actor has given his/her full to their characters. Mehwish Hayat simply outhines but the star is Urwa...

One of the best movies coming out of the Pakistani cinema! Totally unexpected. I knew the film would fare well but this kind of response was unexpected. I watched it in Virginia and the show was sold out. Amazing! Excellent story by Khalil ur Rahman and fantastic dialogues! Music could have been better. It was not bad but not something you would listen to over and over again. Very funny movie! Good acting, nice costumes, amazing cinematography. Loved the movie and highly recommend it. I am sure it will surge to new heights and break records. Kudos to humayun, baig and qamar.

when you have to put a person on long ailment back on his feet you have to treat him with extra care, feed him mildly, concerning not to harshly expose him to reality. This is what director Nadeem Bayg did with this flick.Issues like cross cultural marriages , domestic violence, women empowerment and family politics are addressed in a very basic and entertaining manner to keep the Pakistani audiences not to be overdosed with the issues brought forwarded. I must say MPNJG is a great teamwork from writer to director to producers and the creative and technical people especially actors...all tried well to give their best and succeeded to a good extent. The sets locations and costumes are well worked upon, the production value looks like minted for the big screen and shows well off. Naveed Shahzad and sohail Ahmed's s characters of a Pakistani buzurgs reminds us of our buzurgs which we have never experienced in Bollywood movies and this gives us a moment of solace and "apnapan" (this is why we all love watching P movies of low quality even). Humayun and Mehwish perfect choice for hero and heroine and Mawra s acting skills reminds us of the vamp in 50 s which is a success for a negative roll. But the showstopper is Qamar sahib s dialogues and story pattern. He is a true big screen writer and knows how to do his job well. Ahmed Butt is cute and his comic timings are good, Behroz Sabzwari and Safina aapa were like the mention of Bank Alfalah and Mcdonalds in the movie :). Overall a must watch this festive season not just because Its an efforts that must be appreciated but its a paisa wasool kinda movie ...

Just returned from Cinema and enjoyed from beginning to end. Huge loud of Applause for Nadeem Beyg and the whole team. Finely crafted Jokes throughout the movie. Despite the fact that the role of a Punjabi guy was quite challenging but as usual Humayun Saeed's acting was superb. You will get to see Dance performances which are rare in Lollywood movies. If you liked "Jawani Phir Nahi Aani" then "Punjab Nahi Jaungi" is definitely a Must Watch.

The movie was good, actually way more better then what i expected from the trailer and the reviews. With certain flaws but still the movie keeps you glued to the chairs and entertains you.

Mehwish stole the show i mean she actually seem so real with ups and downs of the story. The stiffness, firmness of her character, how provocative a girl can be and truely a stunning beauty is she, is everything the character asked for. Hamayun was good but he actually didnt adopted the character of a punjabi feudal, overall he was average. Remaining whole cast Ahmed Ali butt, Mawra hocane, they all were good but Sohail ahmed was far more better then even the veteran actors like Saba or Waseem. Movie starts with a good pace from the villages of punjab, continues its journey with a few speed humps of a few disputes but again the stride continues; embedded with emotions, betrayel and certain comedy punches. Unpredictablilty was the core element of the movie i guess, because at certain points the movie was so smooth, it seemed like next thing will be the credits but then again a strike and the movie takes you to another turn.

What i didnt liked about the movie was the lenght of the movie was more then it needed. Culture of Punjab was literally ignored and music could habe been better.

As our industry rose from the ashes, highly eecommended to everyone, please watch and support.

Idk how ppl like this movie, just bcz of the stars it had 7.5, i watched it, and i regret it, ---- Overacting at the top!! The story line is poor, Just the Songs are very well written, beautifully sung only positive about the movie. i will give it 2 Stars only.

There are few films which had power to change the decision of critics and new Pakistani blockbuster Punjab Nahi Jaungi (PNJ) belongs to same category. As a film reviewer and critic I had relinquished the idea of reviewing every film I watch but my faith in writings of Khalil-Ur-Rehman Qamar forced me to change my decision. He first stumped me as writer with TV serial "Sadqay Tumharay" and this time he completely bamboozled me with water tight script of film PNJ. By and large Khalil-Ur-Rehman is one of the most noteworthy writers of our era who are not less than an asset for Pakistani film & TV industry. His writings with uncanny glimpses of his own life time experiences, carries the essence of soil and culture our overall Pakistani society actually thrives upon and this is the reason his work seems believable to the great extent. Nadeem Beyg the director whom my wife mistaken as film star Nadeem Baig is one few good things which happened in Pakistani film industry lately. He started his innings with ground breaking TV serials like Dolly Ki Ayegi Baraat and Pyaray Fazal and now he has scored his second double century with PNJ after giving massive hit like Jawani Phir Nahi Ani (JPNA) couple of years ago. He is raising his stature as an accomplished film director with every film. His ability of extracting remarkable performances wrapped in heavy dialogues and humorous punch liners is one of the kind and singles him out as a director who keeps his viewers engaged in every scene of the film. His ostentatious vision is an element which was missing before but now alleviates Pakistani film industry to another level. There is always a room for improvement but he has raised viewers expectations substantially which does not allow him to fall back. His next directorial venture must be grandeur and visually majestic. Humayun Saeed as a flamboyant feudal grandson Fawad Khagga is as lovable as one can think of. As a film critic I was not a big fan of Humayun Saeed's acting prowess but JPNA changed my opinion and his role as Fawad Khagga in PNJ has increased my confidence on him as the most bankable superstar of Pakistani film industry today. As a typical Punjabi feudal son who loves to use English sentences in hardcore Punjabi accent is nothing but an adorable feature of PNJ. Every time when he responds to any query with "Good Question, Very Good Question..." we hear giggles in cinema hall. His episode of "Help Me Durdana" has already become catchphrase of the year. Dazzling Mehwish Hayat dazzles her viewers again with her intense portrayal of UK returned Amal who has been brought up according to modern standards of the time and the same time trained to carry burden of traditional family values in sophisticated way. Though she does not have any leverage of funny punch liners but she mesmerizes viewers with her beauty in every frame. Casting Suhail Ahmed as Mehtab Khagga the feudal lord and grandfather of Humayun Saeed is a master stroke. We cannot imagine anyone else to play the role of funny but lovable Mehtab Khagga. It seems this role was specifically written for him. PNJ is debut film for seasoned TV actress Naveed Shahzad. The kind of subtle, mature and restrained performance she has given as Beebojee, no doubt she will be among the top contenders to win best supporting actress award next year. Urwa Hocane is amazing as manipulative but naive Durdana. Ahmad Ali Butt who charmed us in JPNA does not have much screen time in PNJ but whenever he appears he spreads same persona which we used to experience in times of Rafi Khawar aka Nanna. Other actors like Waseem Abbas, Saba Waseem and Behroz Sabzwari have done satisfactory job. Much credit to be given to cinematographer of PNJ who has done splendid job and made every scene of the film an eye candy. Likewise team of Sahir Ali Bagga, Meesha Shafi, Sheeraz Uppal and Farhan Saeed has done remarkable job in music department by giving melodious numbers of the year. On the whole, Punjab Nahi Jaungi is not a film but an EVENT of the year and it will be crime to miss it. PNJ has already claimed the title of BLOCK BUSTER in Pakistan and outshines Indian films like Baadshaho and A Gentleman in UK and European markets. The kind of response PNJ is receiving all over it will not be an exaggeration to claim that Punjab Nahi Jaungi (PNJ) would have earned INR 200Crores easily if it would have been released in India. Indian distributors this is your miss.

Movie was Not Extraordinary and not even WOW, It was just average movie just like another TV DRAMA ,Good Effort , Lacks Strong story line , Typical Formula Drama Movie. There were few good Jokes , but I was Still Sleepy while watching Movie. Music was good ,Acting was Decent .But lacks Cinema package . overall Average Movie

Hmm. Definitely a very good movie. I would give this movie a 7.9/10. It got my interest right from the beginning. The ending was very good tho. Overall despite its flaws, the goods of the movie overweigh the bads. The VISUALS were amazing. That is actually what kept me hooked. Coming to the negatives, sometimes, the reasons behind the issues between bride and groom feel a bit overstretched or should I say, not properly given exposition. What I did not like the most is the blaming of and the way CHAUDHRY are represented is not good. In reality, they are not like this. If the same went for let's say May Karachi Nahi Jaon Gi and they explicitly mentioned in the movie about MAHAJAR dada ji, papa ji, and their son. It would feel a bit racial. Hence I would say that when making movies like these, the families or especially there names should be fictional. And that's all, looking forward to The legend of Maula Jut now more than ever XD.

Didn't have very high expectations but still it felt below par a little.A good story bundled with poorly executed dialogues and jokes and a less than realistic portrayal of Punjab and its culture with a non Punjabi lead actor and really cosmetic acting made it all into a 2 and a half hour time pass. I will not call it a total waste of time but to support Pakistani cinema it can be given a thought but the film-makers should also give thought to making films that are actual films not prolonged TV serials. Go ahead give it try for sake of our industry.

Acting by Mehwish Hayat and Humayun Saeed was amazing. However, Mehwish Hayat as Amal Dastor steals the show and is perfect in her role. Acting by other cast members was up to the mark as well. Storyline and direction is excellent. Pakistani movies like Punjab Nahi Jaungi can easily give tough competition to Bollywood movies in overseas markets. It surely raises the bar for Pakistani cinema. Have watched this movie several times now. Deserves 10/10.

A mix of comedy and romance with spectacular cinematography. Few good dialog here and there but don't expect too much because Khalilur Rehman was absent IMO. Lead actors are doing well. An average but atleast 2 times watchable.

So I watched Punjab Nahi Jaungi last night at AMC Theatres-Empire 25 I'm going to criticize it hard -- what a terrible movie! Cheesy dialogue and shaky plot points, and the screenplay had a lot of issues of pacing. It was very predictable. It seemed to me like the writing had been rushed. I have seen terrible plots saved by great directors but this wasn't one of them. Nadeem Beyg should reconsider learning some direction skills or attend any workshops or webinars offered worldwide.

I admit, there were some funny punches and relatable moments of humor and the punchline "Help me, Durdana" was very good. Some hidden sexual tension was done subtly. However, the acting was okay but not top notch. Hummayon Saeed, on the other hand, acted well! Makeup was awful. Choreography was utterly clumsy.

And don't even get me started on editing, it was abruptly cut. Again, no sense of pacing and rhythm at all! A film should have cinematic value but this film failed to provide the cinematic product. Complete replica of some cheeky Bollywood movies.

After #Chorrian This is the First Movie That i Watched. Really its an Amazing Movie. Story, Cast, Acting, Locations Everything is Perfect. Loved the movie and highly recommend it. I am sure it will surge to new heights and break records. Keep it up ARY Films. #AamirCHaudhary #ARYFILMS #PunjabNahiJaungi
