Mushkil

I watched Mushkil in Cinema after its release in Pakistan.. and its one of the few Art Movies (Non Commercial Cinema or Parallal Cinema) made in Pakistan... Movie is based on Child kidnappings and their use for begging and other purposes.... Son of Javed Sheikh and Neeli (Middle Class husband and wife) is kidnapped by the villains and how they rescue him with the help of some cops and themselves... Javed Sheikh's first movie and I really liked it considering it a first attempt by an Actor turned director... Javed Sheikh is superb as always and showed the viewers that he can play character role too..... Neeli played character of lovely wife and caring mother wonderfully...Supporting Actors like Behroz, Talash did fine jobs too...Nadeem played a small but convincing part and thats appreciative too...

This is an excellent story about a family (Javed Sheikh, Neeli and their son) whose only beloved son is kidnapped by group of Bay-Gar Camp (a place to keep kidnapped kids) people. These kids are transported one of the gulf countries, where some of the Arab traders use them for camel racing. If the kid is very young then the owner ties the kid to the camel and use him in the camel race. Some of the kids die during the race after falling down from the camel. When Javed Sheikh and Neeli's son disappears from a Shopping Mall then they try to search them everywhere and get through the hardships of desert searching. Pakistani police plays a traditional role by helping the criminal instead of the family. The ordeal gets over when Javed Sheikh and Neeli gets to Bay-Gar camp and get free their son. The last seen of the movie was beautiful when the family handover rest of the lost kids to Abdul Sattar Ehdi to find their parents and get back to their homes. This is traditional musical movie of Pakistan but with some nice and very popular songs. Javed Sheikh gave the chance to Tahseen Javed to sing one of the movie songs. The song 'Dil Ho Gaya Hay Tera Diwana…..'was hit during 1995 and 1996 on 'Lollywood Top Ten' music chart. This movie should not be compared with Hollywood or Bollywood movies because it's better than other Pakistani movies, which can be seen with the family. Cheers. Khalid H. Siddiqui.
