Movie trailer Maula Jatt

The trailer of the Pakistani film The Legend of Maulah Jatt feels like fruit of years of hard work.

Story of the ancient times a unique but suspicious atmosphere the bond between 2 characters that crosses the limit of enmity moments immersed in the sauce of love in which Fawad Khan & Mahira are together for 1st time after the drama Hum Safar. are seen

Fawad Khan & Hamza Ali Abbasi looked completely settled in their respective roles while Mahira Khan traditional simplicity & Hamima Malik fierce look nailed it.

It is a fantasy world but feels much closer to reality. Gundasa an old weapon but seen with innovation is being presented in a modern twist to the 1979 film.
