As part of the move to screen Pakistani movies in theatres by the local exhibitors, Jami Mahmood’s Moor is all set to re-release.
It is turning out to be a good business move for many filmmakers, especially for Jami, as his action film Operation 021 has joined the line-up too.
Even though Operation 021 did average business at the box office, it was lauded by critics and looks to have another go at luring in audiences.
While talking to local media, Jami said,“This is the biggest news for me as I know Moor reached around the world but 021 coming back to screens holds a nostalgic irony as two cinemas removed it after the first show.”
“I’m more excited for 021 because Moor is still running somewhere around the world. 021’s release is very special,” he added.
With both of his films running in cinemas again, it would be interesting to see which one attracts more audiences. While Operation 021 was nominated for the Best Film at Lux Style Awards in 2015, Moor was selected as Pakistan’s official entry for the Academy Awards.
