One expects Pakistani movies to hit the screens on the expected release dates however, this almost never happens. The feature film and directorial debut of Hassan Waqas Rana, Yalghaar is now all set to release in August or September this year. It is not a surprise that many of the Pakistani movies have lengthy shootings and post production phases. A victim of this tradition is the upcoming new age movie Yalghaar. Yalghaar was previously set to release last December, however was later postponed to July this year. It has recently been confirmed by Rana that the movie has reached its final post production phase. The director said that many have suggested to release the movie on August 14th or September 6th, as it will go with the movie’s theme.

“The rough cut is ready and we are now working on the post-production for Yalghaar, mainly the visual effects (VFX) and sound design,” the writer-director said. The post-production of the movie is being undertaken in four different countries, says Rana. “We are currently uploading the film on the servers after which production companies from four different countries will work on it,” he said. From the makers of “Waar”, comes another tribute to Pakistan Army, “Yalghaar” featuring Shaan, Humayun Saeed, Adnan Siddiqui and more.
