I am following the development of Pakistan Movie industry recently. It is a really fact that Pakistan movie industry is trying gather its lost image...And this is really encouraging..But the fact is entertainment is a segment that never booms to a good extent in an religious conservative society or coutry like Pakistan..I was listening to many script writers and director from Lollywood...They always complain that there are so many restriction that has been out on them while making a movie.... And the vital factor is marketing...Every one is talking about Bollywood...I am not sure if people of Pakistan is aware about south Indian movie industry...This is more sophisticated and economically viable that you might be aware of ...Although South Indian film industry are regional movies but the quality of the movies technically and marketing wise pretty much superior that the Bollywood movies.....

So the idea of providing these example is that entertainment business depends primarily on marketing and economy of your market segment... Emotional request to promote a movie industry or expecting an rehabilitation from the GOV ,never works..

Bhai Log brings the action back to cinemas​

LAHORE:
Since the likes of Maula Jatt — a classic action film starring Sultan Rahi in the lead role — Pakistan has seen a decline of good action films being produced in the country. However, this Eid, Syed Faisal Bukhari’s action thriller Bhai Log aims to change this trend.
Bhai Log revolves around the gangs of Karachi and the prevailing terror situation in the city. The film — which addresses questions of nationhood and perpetual lawlessness which seems to prevail in the city — has an impressive cast comprising Javed Sheikh, Moammar Rana, Babar Ali, Saima Noor, Nadeem Baig and a host of other talented actors.

The film has two trailers which were released last month and show Karachi through unique camera angles and vantage points that are not typically seen in Pakistani films. Bhai Log includes carefully choreographed action sequences and dramatic rivalry between two gangs which have a hold on the governance and administration. The fight scenes between Ali and Rana show an entirely different side of both characters — known for their romantic and comic roles.

Sheikh, who plays the role of a godfather, explains that Bhai Log will prove critics — who are pessimistic about the state of Pakistani films — wrong. “Faisal has shown Karachi in a way that has never been explored before in Pakistani cinema. It has shots which are difficult to capture and that is why there has been a tremendous response to the trailers,” said Sheikh. “People will fall in love with the climactic end through which we’re sending a message that is relevant to the nation today.”

Producing the film was by no means a smooth ride. Due to the difficulty of shooting in key areas of Karachi, Bukhari required security clearance and that meant that many shots had Karachi police in them.

The post-production of the film is being done abroad to ensure that sound and video quality are up to the mark and comparable to most Bollywood action films.

Currently in Bangkok for post-production, the film may have to deal with other constraints related to the business side of the industry. However, Sheikh is hopeful that the production will get a good sponsor which will help it garner box office success. “Hype is quite important but, at the end of the day, viewers are looking for quality content. We will make sure that we do what we can to promote the film so that it is successful and reaches the maximum number of people.”

Meanwhile, Bhai Log’s co-producer Chaudhry Ijaz Kamran explains the dilemma that the production team is facing in trying to convince new cinemas to screen the film. “Newer cinemas are more interested in screening Indian films because of the stigma attached to Pakistani films,” said Kamran. He also rued the fact that the film was being censored by the federal government even though it is now the provincial government’s responsibility.

However, despite the hurdles on the way, he remains optimistic, holding on to the firm belief that the film will be successful due to its quality content and high production standards. “We’re fighting to gain acceptance. But I believe that if the industry provides a new film with international standards, it will work,” said Kamran.

I haven't seen a trailor on any of leading channels of Pakistan... I have just seen a billboard near cinemas and I never thought of it as good film but if it is a good film then why such low marketing budget ??

Why not market on Tv Channels, new channels, music chaneels etc etc

 

[iPhone]

Not true. Indian dramas/channels were popular in Pakistan 10-15 years ago, but ever since more and more Pakistani dramas/channels have emerged no one even watches indian channels anymore.

Same thing will happen to film industry, once more and more good Pakistani films are released bollywood will lose its popularity in Pakistan

one observation I made on my recent trip to Pakistan was people will watch indian movies on cable channels, no problem, but very few actually prefer watching indian movies in cinemas. We ended up watching a crappy Pakistani movie- packed house - than a technically superior Indian movie which was being showed on eid but wasn't selling anywhere near as many tickets. Also case in point is the recent Pakistani movies released this eid, Bhai log and Love me Gum which did much better than Salman Khan's bodyguard in Pakistan.

All Pakistan film Industry (please get rid of the name lollywood) needs to do is be technically better and with technology getting cheaper by the day, it'll be very affordable to get good hd cameras and lighting equipment.

 

[Baby Leone]

Good news love the new movie love me gum expecially its title song featuring all pakistani artists (tv, music, films etc...) excellent work by Reema ...
and why no marketing for movie bhailog....
when the shitty movies like bodyguard and dabnag can do marketing in pakistan why not a good movie?

 

[Karachiite]

Both Bhai Log and Love Mein Ghum ended up doing good business. Bhai Log particularly did better business.

Can someone PM with links of ******** of some Pakistani movies.. Pleech.......

I don't use ******** but best I can do is send you youtube links or a website that has many Pakistani movies. Don't know if any have subtitles

The more movies Pakistan starts to make, the less bollywood movies people are going to watch. We've already seen this occur with the decline of indian channels in Pakistan. Which move did you see by the way?
