Fawad Khan And Mahira Khan’s Film The Legend Of Maula Jatt To Release In India

The Pakistani movie The Legend of Maula Jatt is set to release in India, two years after it premiered globally. Featuring Fawad Khan and Mahira Khan in leading roles, this marks the first Pakistani film in more than ten years to be shown in Indian theaters. However, Nadeem Mandviwalla, a film producer based in Karachi who also handled the film’s distribution in Pakistan, informed IndiaToday.in that the movie will only be released in Punjab, rather than across the entire country.

Mandviwalla remains optimistic about the film’s box office performance. He believes it can still achieve impressive results in India since it has not yet been released on any streaming platform. This gives it a strong chance of becoming a major success. Although the film is coming out two years after its original release, which may dampen initial excitement, he expects that positive word of mouth will reignite interest among audiences.

The Legend of Maula Jatt is a remake of the 1979 Pakistani film Maula Jatt. When it was released two years ago, it became the highest-grossing Pakistani film at the box office. The creators are optimistic that the Punjabi audience will support it in theaters, as the story reflects Punjabi culture. We also spoke to someone connected to the film who revealed that releasing The Legend of Maula Jatt only in Punjab serves as a way to gauge its appeal. This release acts as a test to see how well a Pakistani film is received today. If it succeeds, there is a possibility of expanding its release to other cities soon.

There is some optimism about the flow of content and talent from the neighboring country, but establishing it as a consistent route will take time. The team is concerned about security and wants to steer clear of any issues or negative attention. They believe that Punjab offers an ideal market for the film’s release at this moment, according to a source. Earlier, the film’s director, Bilal Lashari, shared details about the movie’s release in Punjab, India. He posted the film’s poster on social media, announcing, “Releasing in Punjab, India on Wednesday, October 2nd! After two years, the film is still drawing full houses on weekends in Pakistan! I’m excited for our Punjabi audience in India to enjoy this heartfelt project!”
