Load Wedding

Watched #loadwedding movie in a housefull yesterday and trust me when I say that this @mehwishhayatofficial and @mustafafahad26 starrer is probably one of the best movies to come out of Pakistan's revived cinema. No cheap comedy, no Bollywood-inspired melodrama. Highly entertaining with an important social message! A special shout-out for the highly relatable script and a brilliant supporting cast. A must-watch! @geofilms_geo @loadwedding

PS: Every family who has a wedding coming up, please go and watch it. You might just do your kids and yourself a favour.

Pakistani cinema is evolving and is definitely improving. However, the focus nowadays is to cast beautiful actors, take them to exotic locations, shoot beautiful scenes and make a movie out of it.

Load wedding didn't fall into that trap. The story revolves around a small town, its simple non glamorous people and their relatable issues.

I genuinely laughed at the scenes which were meant to be funny. The acting was decent, the melodrama was acceptable.

The only thing that I didn't like was the fake punjabi accent. If you are making a movie about Punjab then hire actors who can speak the native tongue fluently or can learn to speak it like the locals.

All in all, a very good movie. It had a good story that highlighted a serious social evil. The songs and dances were nice and I really enjoyed the parody of the famous game show guy.

Good work!

It was a master piece very strong story and conveyed in a good way and in good style it's very difficult to put comedy in a serious story

Producer Fizza Ali Meerza and director Nabeel Qureshi team up yet again with a strong message and a powerful cast to deliver a highly watchable film with a convincing flavour of culture, emotion and authenticity.

Load Wedding is the story of Raja (Fahad Mustafa) from Nirali, a small town in Central Punjab, Pakistan, where he runs a wedding decoration shop. Raja has an over-weight sister, Farhana (Faiza Hasan) and as per tradition, he cannot get married before she does. Farhana or "Baby Baji" is refused proposals not just because of her weight but also because of the dowry demands of prospective in-laws. This is not the end of Raja's troubles as he has loved Meeru (Mehwish Hayat) since the two were children but life and circumstances prevent them from getting together. In the initial part, Raja cuts a sorry figure as he grapples with various problems, ranging from financial difficulties to coping with orthodox, small-town family values. The film is about his struggles to rise above these obstacles and win the girl he loves.

Pakistan film industry is changing and it is due to this type of movies! Well done team of "Load Wedding". Keep on coming the movies like these :)
