‘Parchi’ just dropped their trailer and it’s an exciting time for the Pakistani film industry. With more and more films coming out, there is a considerable growth in our industry. Not to forget that the production quality, storyline, cinematography has all improved by a hundredfold, and its all still improving. With ‘Parchi’ comes a whole different kind of film. It’s thrilling, it’s funny and the biggest change that this film is bringing about? The female lead: the uber talented Hareem Farooq.

Hareem plays a don in the film which is unlike any Pakistani film we’ve seen

By playing Eman, a female don, in the film, Hareem is changing the game for women in the Pakistani film industry. While before, women were only considered dainty, fragile, side characters whose only job was to give barhawa and support to the male lead, Hareem has taken the reins into her whole hands. We are absolutely pleasantly surprised with this new avatar.

She’s seen with two lead men in the movie: Usman Mukhtar and Ali Rehman Khan

While we’re unclear about the story, it seems pretty interesting already.

She has this bomb song in the film

‘Billo Hai’ has come out and is all set to be the biggest shaadi anthem of the year!

And she’s an all-out superstar

Hareem also happens to be one of the producers of the film. With her past production, coupled with IRK Films, being the biggest hit of 2016, she’s all set to make 2018 start off with an absolute bang

The film is apparently about a group of guys struggling to save their lives, running for their lives from the antagonist, Zodiac

The good old Islamabad crew in this film really is all kinds of wonderful

Now if only we had Osman Khalid Butt in this image as well, it would’ve been perfect. But it’s okay, he was too busy choreographing this beauty of a song!

Officially part of the #Parchi family as the Director of Choreography! 2/3 songs (hoping there's a third; everything depends on scheduling/finances) done in what was an INTENSE, challenging but hopefully rewarding experience! Hareem, Ali, Joey (Usman), Ahmed & Shafqi bhai: you were rockstars. Can't wait for the world to see you kick major ass on the dance floor! A huge shout-out to Imran Kazmi, Azfar Jafri, and the entire IRK team for their unwavering faith and patience. More details as they come!

With past productions with the same team, under Shahbaz Shigri’s direction, this film is set to be pretty amazing

The same actors gave us short films like ‘Sole Search’ and ‘Slackistan’, so we can’t wait to see what else is in store.

There is also everyone’s favourite cutie Ahmed Ali Akbar being, well, cute (read: super cute)

There’s bromance and suspense, there’s love and thrill

And there’s also a cameo, in the trailer, by everyone’s favorite funny woman: Faiza Saqlain

We can’t wait to see more of Hareem and the rest of the boys in ‘Parchi’
