Kanebaaz (The Movie)
June 21, 2011 at 2:14am
Few
days back Galaxy lollywood announced the results of a poll which
basically was organised in order to get an idea that who actually people
think has the ability of becoming the next Shaan or Moammar Rana of
country’s film industry.
Mohib Mirza who is considered as one of
the country’s most versatile actors from the new acting lot; got the
third highest number of public votes there and here we are now
officially announcing that the actor will soon be seen in a Pakistani
feature film and all his fans must gear themselves up as something
really exciting is coming up to entertain them.
Film that we are talking about is named as
Kanebaaz (name
looks pretty interesting and street kind of a thing), starring none
other than Mohib Mirza, his very talented, beautiful actor wife Amina
Sheikh and very well known Faisal Rehman in lead roles. Whereas Rashid
Farooqi, Shabbir Jaan and Sajid Shah are also part of the project.
The
behind camera team of the film is also something really grand as
famous writer/actor Syed Muhammad Ahmed has penned the film story while
Ali Sade and Adeel Farhan are holding the positions of director and
producer of the film respectively. Ali Sade has got some TV work such
as Fabulous four and Don’t Jealous to his credits while producer Farhan
heads a Lahore based production house “MCONTENT PVT. LTD”, and has
also been part of TV dramas like
Badtameez and
Don’t jealous in past.
Movie
will basically revolve around the character of a street-side gambler
named Siddiq (Mohib Mirza) who is basically a mechanic by profession.
He is a sharp card player and all his extra ordinary skills in the game
makes him a prominent figure of street-side gambling and eventually he
gets approached by the gambling lord ‘Bawan Shah’ (Faisal Rehman).
Bawan initially tests his skills a bit more and then after realizing
his money making abilities; gives him a special position in his gang.
Furthermore movie unfolds the human angle to Siddiq’s life as a
gangster and a genuinely good hearted individual.
The story looks
really fresh & good and hopefully Mohib who became the first
Pakistani to earn the Kent Film Festival’s award for best supporting
actor for his last film
InshaAllah, will again bring that
unique acting magic of his in this movie too. Besides him, it would be
interesting to see Faisal Rehman and Rashid Farooqi back on the big
screen after a long time while some really great hopes are attached
with the work of Amina Sheih and very seasoned Shabbir Jaan.
Movie is currently in its post production stage and thus we can expect it to hit the countrywide cinemas very soon.
Below
we are attaching some of the on set pictures of the film showing
Faisal Rehman, Mohib and Shabbir Jaan involved in the project with rest
of the team members.
Faisal is given a very right look of an
underworld don through his Chevron Moustache and extra long sideburns
and his looks are compareable with those of Ajay Devgan in
Once upcon a time in Mumbai.
Not much work is done on the character of Mohib and he could be seen
in simple looks with a medium hair length, dressed in ordinary clothes
in the pictures, may be that’s all what his character requires but
let’s wait for the end product. Looks of Shabbir Jaan are really
something worth praising and will perfectly match with the kind of
unique acting style he has. From pictures it seems that his role is of
someone like a rich land lord or businessman having connections with
underworld and despite having a strong personality, loves enjoying
worldly luxuries.
