‘Parwaz-e-Junoon’ is a similar sort of story that covers only one out of hundreds of stories where Army Aviation did wonders during operation Rah-e-Raast. Based on a true incident when 2 helicopters (Bell and Cobra) covering an Army convoy experienced some heavy firing from one side of a mountain. Soon the pilots found out an 800 kg heavy 14.5 mm anti aircraft gun installed at one of the mountain tops. It poised a great threat for Army troops reaching that area. Despite of grave danger and lack of time, both of them decided to eliminate the gunners and dismantle the gun. They later lifted the gun with the help of three soldiers on the helicopter and brought it back to their base. This thrilling and action packed drama is written and directed by Kashif Nisar. Prominent cast includes Maj. Zahid Bari, Maj. Khalid Maooz and Erum Akhtar.
