Good film but no more - don't over believe the hype
Not many reviews at the time of writing, most are 10/10. This is most definitely not a 10/10 movie, I gave it 7/10 to say slightly above average but no more. It's not a memorable movie but typical Pak/Bollywood with loads of songs and story and a good enough watch for its Eid release.
Whilst Mahira Khan was clearly the best in the movie, her role almost personifies her current status as the top if not one of the top Pakistani leading ladies. She has the swagger to pull off her role. Bilal Ashraf was good too although not on MK's level.
The songs I won't comment on too much as they're not my forte, Anjaana by Atif Aslam and Noori were probably my favourites. My issue with the songs were they felt like too many and at times made the movie feel like a long music video.
TLDR: good enough movie to watch over Eid.
PS 1/10 reviews are likely due to some political scenes between Pak/India and should be disregarded.
