Actor Humayun Saeed responds to criticism of Shaan Shahid in the film ‘London Nahi Jaunga’ in his tweet on Tuesday.
He gave a quite witty yet blunt response to Shaan Shahid who said that the Pakistani cinema industry should move on from movies like ‘London Nahi Jaunga’ or ‘Punjab Nahi Jaong’.
In his tweet, Humayun Saeed implied that he will continue to support the Pakistan film industry and will such films as well. The actor said that he will even go to watch the upcoming release of Shaan Shahid ‘Zarar’. The film is expected to release on November 25th. “Idhar bhi jaonga aur udhar bhi jaonga… Aur zarrar dekhne bhi jaonga… Zarrar releasing on 25th November! All the best Shaan bhai @mshaanshahid,” said Humayun Saeed in the tweet.
Shaan Shahid in his latest interview said that Pakistan’s film industry should move towards making a film of other genres such as science fiction and horror.
He said, “There are many subjects that are not being touched by the directors, they are not exploring the genre of horror which has a lot more to be done. There is a whole genre of sci-fi which directors don’t even want to touch”. Adding that, “It can only be done if we move on from Ider Nahi Jaungi and Uder Nhi Jaungi sort of films.”
