Pakistan’s leading director Bilal Lashari is all set to surprise us again, not with box office returns but with the project that he has gotten his hands on.  Lashari earlier put the arms and ammunition of Pakistan army to stylistic use, and will now be giving a new identity to Gandasa films with a multi-million dollar remake of Maula Jatt.

Maula Jatt 2 has begun shooting, the excitement has just doubled.

But wait!

Lashari wants to clarify something. The ‘Waar’ director posted Facebook to announce that his upcoming feature is not ‘Maula Jatt 2’, not a sequel of the cult classic, nor a remake of it either.

Wait whaaa

The film is a co-production with an American production house, the name which hasn’t been disclosed as yet and will have a budget in the millions of dollars. From a war epic to a new brand of Gandasa films; Lashari is taking some huge steps and even huger risks. Traditional Gandasa films have been looked down upon by modern viewers due to a lack of content, but Lashari is not only aiming to stay true to the spirit of the originals, but he is also determined to make it palatable for contemporary audiences.
