If one could take a glance into the past, one would notice that Pakistan film industry had a glorious heritage. But it started to deteriorate in the era of Ziaul Haq when strict censor policy introduced violence and vulgarity and ignored social subjects and romance. Syed Noor, Javed Sheikh and Samina Peerzada have been striving hard to survive in this ailing industry.
Javed Sheikh has produced a number of good films, Yes Boss, Chief Sahib, Mushkil and mega hit ‘Ye Dil Aap ka Hua’. Since then he took a lot of time for his next venture. “If one has to deliver something, it should be classic because only good work remains in history and enliven your name,” Javed gave the reason of the delay.
He further said the task before him was that he could not compromise quantity over quality. ‘Khulay Aasman kay Neechay’ is a mega budget film as it is picturised in Australia, Dubai, India and Pakistan giving excellent screenplay and fancy sets to attract the viewers. Music is the important part of any film that contributes to its success. In this regard, services of renowned musician Amjad Bobby were acquired and he composed the music in India.
When this scribe asked the reason of composition of music and choreography in India, Javed Sheikh said Lollywood lacked modern equipment. As per choreography he justifies and gives sound reasons behind this decision. He said in his previous flicks Pappu/Khannu Samrat and Ashraf Sherazi did their job very well, but the problem is that for chorus songs talented extra girls aren’t available.
Not only Javed but all Lollywood hawks have fixed their eyes on the rating of the film as cinemas are getting deserted day by day with slim number and poor quality of productions by Lollywood.
Vice-Chairman of Producers Association Jamshed Zafar expects that the film would be a blockbuster as Javed Sheikh has good reputation of quality work. He defends co-production as this can be fruitful for cinema owners and viewers.
The leading role is played by Javed’s former darling Sana as Meera is appearing as second heroine. Though Saleem Sheikh’s repute is for mini-screen but in number of flicks for big screen he confidently played several roles. In short July 4, 2008 is a day of judgment not only for Javed Sheikh, but also for his team and Lollywood’s future. See what happens…
