People Can't Stop Being Angry About Neelam Munir's New Movie Poster

By Sarah Babar | 22 Nov, 2017

With the Pakistani cinema industry on the rise, more and more movies are surfacing. With Verna just having released earlier this week, people are still in the process of accepting Pakistani films.

And to join the rankings of movies coming out, we see social media sensation Neelam Munir’s latest film’s poster come out

 

‘Chupan Chupai’ is slated to be a comedy thriller about a young man looking to make a quick buck

The film also stars veteran actor Ahsan Khan in the lead, along with Adnan Jaffer, and industry greats the likes of Talat Hussain, Arshad Mahmood, Sakina Samo and Javed Sheikh.

The thing is, that with the increasing use of social media, we don’t allow actors and actresses room to breathe, anymore. We’re very quick to point fingers at and slut-shame women, for no apparent reason. Just like people are doing with Chupan Chupai, nobody waits for the movie to actually judge an actor’s ability. Instead, we focus more on what they’re wearing, what they’re doing, who they’re doing it with.  Guess we could all do with giving other people just a bit of space.
