Raju Jamil recently visited the famous Evernew Studios in Lahore and made the following videos with narration in his own voice. I wanted to share these here because Evernew studios have played a pivotal role in Pakistan’s movie history. The informative and informal commentary that Raju Saheb has put together show his sincere passion for the subject.
Dear Readers,
While All Things Pakistan has remained alive and online, it has been dormant since June 11, 2011 - when, on the blog's 5th anniversary, we decided that it was time to move on. We have been heartened by your messages and the fact that a steady traffic has continued to enjoy the archived content on ATP. While the blog itself will remain dormant, we are now beginning to add occasional (but infrequent) new material by the original authors of the blog, mostly to archive what they may now publish elsewhere. We will also be updating older posts to make sure that new readers who stumble onto this site still find it useful.
We hope you will continue to find ATP a useful venue to reflect upon and express your Pakistaniat. - Editors
Why are some people fretting about the video? It is not a professional one and certainly needs editing but it is good in its own right. Its like an old class South Asian narrative kinda video that only attracts a niche audience. Don’t watch it if you don’t like but don’t spill your negativity on this portal.
I am not going to sit through a boring movie, just to support and applaud a bad job. And give sympathy laughs when its not funny.
My time and claps and leaks and figuring outs are precious.
It give me the creeps when pakistani shows pushes audience to clap when they do not deserve one.
Its not true that only western movies impresses me. Just last night seriously considered to walk out on 3D “chronicle of Narnia” (bad editing), previously Harry potter and was the only one who gave “standing” applause to the movies “Salt” and “Shutter Island” in the end. Although it is not considered proper.
Because I believe they (pakistanis) can do better, just need a little soft kick in the behind.
Then the applause and claps would come naturally.
