Love the friends concept. Jiggars through thick and thin and then the classic love triangle. Powerhouse performances by Sheryar Munawar, Mahira Khan and Adeel. Loved the songs too.
All in all, Ho Mann Jahan was an enjoyable watch. Although the movie seemed relatively flat at the beginning, as the story develops, so does the audience's interest. The direction and story line were decent. Unlike Bin Roye, the movie had great flow between scenes and looked appropriately edited. The songs were unique and the theme well played out. The three main actors, Adeel Hussain, Mahira Khan, and Shehreyar Munawwar acted extremely well, so much that some scenes became real tear-jerkers, however some of the older and more mature actors did not act with such finesse.
Ho Mann Jahan was a great attempt by Pakistani cinema and is definitely a must-watch. Although some aspects of movie-making are still lacking and there is always room for improvement, Pakistani cinema has definitely taken a huge step forward with this movie.

I liked Ho Mann Jahaan on average, but indeed it was entertaining. I think theme of the movie is to "you want it, go get it".
It was to pursue your dreams, be tolerant of other's view and don't control your children lives too much. Music is just used as an objective. It might be difficult for some people to digest, MUSIC AS A PROFESSION but i guess it was basically an elite youth oriented movie, where such scenario is a possibility.
I was quite pleasantly surprised by Sheheryaar's acting. Different expressions of Arhaan's personality were played well and his character was quite interesting. I really liked his acting in some of the intense scenes esp climax.
Adeel Hussain was also great as Nadir. Although he was able to show Nadir's emotions effectively. An elite with familial issues and unable to coupe with drastic decisions, Adeel portrayed it perfectly.
Mahira Khan looked stunning. She played the role brilliantly.
Sonya Jahan looked graceful and glamorous. Her acting was great and in the short span that her character was given, she was able to shine in her role.
Music, i must say could have been better, mean if you are taking the cast to Coke Studio, the music atleast touch the levels of Yaar Daadhi, Lamha or Tajdaar e haram.
Direction and cinematography was astonishing. All the shots of Karachi, boats, northern areas, crop fields, and seaside will provide you a glimpse of true pakistan. Each and every frame was exquisite and colorfull.
All the characters were relatable with our surroundings and the way they had their conflicts arise because of the different way of thinking of different people. I also liked the small comedy punches in the film and the funniest thing is that this is usually what happens in real life. The other thing that movie made an impact for me ehile entertaining as well. Story showed that people can have different opinions yet they could live peacefully. We should be tolerant and this is what we lack.
Ho Mann Jahaan is highly recommended. As our industry rose from the ashes, please watch and support.

well its an average movie with few good songs , with new casts with strong skills of acting and mesmerizing Mahira khan. the story is good but it has a flaw of extending story for no reasons very bored scenes. people do get bored even after the first half cause its take you know where because you already know the end, the only reason i have given it 5 stars is because of the new cast who acted nicely and Mahira is grooming as an actress. my suggestion is if u really interested in watching the movie find a cinema with low price so u can come out anytime u wanted to, but one must appreciate the choreography of the songs dance and the blend of songs in different languages, and choosing the cast wisely.
This movie is the first major Pakistani release of the year, and quite honestly fell a bit flat.
The concept on which this movie is based upon is outdated and contradictory to the kind of movies that Pakistan has been releasing thus far. The script was basic, acting mediocre at times and general execution and direction dull.
I didn't see any diverse acting skills, instead some of the scenes came off as forced, stilted and overacted. The editing was choppy and the promise of a musical extravaganza failed to meet any expectation whatsoever.
After watching some recent release's that the Pakistan film industry has to offer this effort fell far below to what else is out there. It seems that there is a danger for future releases to fall in to this tired concept and just because it has a couple of big name stars attached to the project that it is automatically acceptable for an international release.
A poor effort overall. Leaves a lot to be desired.
