Lahore: Pakistani romantic thriller 'Bachaana', starring actress Sanam Saeed of 'Zindagi Gulzar Hai' fame, is set to arrive in Indian theaters on February 26.
The movie, about a cross-border connection akin to Bollywood blockbuster 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan', will release in Pakistan on the same date.
"The distributors in India have shown interest primarily because the film's trailer evoked social media discussions comparing 'Bachaana' with Bollywood hit 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan'," Director Nasir Khan told PTI.
"The Pakistan-India angle has intrigued and created a lot of buzz for the film and I am positive that cine goers will not be disappointed. Things have been finalised (with distributors) and I am excited to see 'Bachaana' release in India," he added.
Shot across the beautiful Island of Mauritius, Bachaana chronicles the adventures of a sweet and bubbly Indian girl, Aalia (Saeed).
She undergoes a series of unfortunate events and is forced to place her faith in a man she hardly knows. That man, Vicky, played by Mohib Mirza, is a Pakistani taxi driver in Mauritius.??
'Bachaana' follows the couple's adventurous journey culminating in love as what is said 'love knows no boundaries'.
The director does not see Bachaana's fate like that of 'Bin Roye', Mahira Khan-starrer Pakistani film, which was banned by the Indian state of Maharashtra last July.
'''Bachaana' is a positive film there is nothing political about it," Khan said.
He said Bachaana's OST (songs) is also a cross-border collaboration, pairing the cinema of Pakistani and Indian music fraternity, Bollywood music director, Prasad Sashte and Pakistan's celebrated singer Shafqat Amanat Ali.
The title track is composed by Pakistani musician Ali Sher and sung by Bollywood playback singer Benny Dayal. The OST is being picked up in India by a major music label and being released in the country shortly.
'Bachaana' is Saeed's feature debut film. She is popular with Indian audience for her lead role in Pakistani drama 'Zindagi Gulzar Hai'.
While Mirza, an established actor in Pakistani drama and film scene. He will also be seen in the Pakistani sequel to Mahesh Bhatt's 1982 Bollywood movie 'Arth'.

Just saw #Bachaana .. Superb movie.. Action, romance, thrill and comedy all in just 100 minutes.. Will roar big at box office..
Sanam Saeed has given best performance for Pakistani actress in recent years nd Mohib was equally good @sanammodysaeed @mohibmirza #Bachaana
Film is shot at extremely grand scale.. Nasir Khan has rocked.. Script was very tight.. 4 out of 5 by me.. #Bachaana is must watch..
@voxcinemas Just saw an early screening of #Bachaana. Super entertaining! Sure shot blockbuster movie!
Bachaana is an upcoming Pakistani film, all set to release world wide on February 26, 2016. We at SilverScreen Pakistan and FilmsPlusMovies are really excited at the developments we see in Pakistani film industry with every new filmin recent times. However, it is only fair to say that Nasir Khan has raised the bar for others in the industry, and that too, at an impressive scale.
What is so special about Bachaana? Well, there are so many factors that make Bachaana special. Pakistani movie Bachaana produced by Rizwan Saeedhas a refreshing feel. The locales are natural and beautiful. Exceptional camera work, stunning cinematography and excellent art work makes the whole affair pleasant to look at. Color grading of the film is really good, which has helped enhance the good feel of the movie. A major improvement in the technical dimension is much improved sound design in comparison to previous, recentPakistani films. It is heart warming to see that Pakistani film industry is improving with every new film. The new film makers in Pakistan are not only paying attention towards stories and acting, they are also aware of the fact that our films need to improve technically too. All this is special about Bachaana. There is a lot more which is special about the film though.
Bachaana is Nasir Khans debut film as a director. It is Sanam Saeeds first silver screen appearance. It is Adeel Hashmi's first big screen appearance. It is only Mohib Mirza who has worked in 5 movies by now. Although the acting by the lead couple and Adeel Hashmi is top notch, what makes Bachaana different from the rest, and for the better, is that Nasir Khan has finally helped Pakistani cinema by delivering a complete film. In recent times, we have seen some reasonable attempts at cinema by big names from the TV industry. However, those films were hardly any different from what we see on TV in the form ofdrama serials. This is for the first time in the recent cinematic wave in Pakistan that a director's taking is completely that of a film. Excellent framing by Nasir Khan. Thumbs up director sahab!
So, here is the review of Pakistani film Bachaana:
Direction: Very good (Excellent framing, good selection of locales)
Production Value: Very good
Script: Very good (Excellent punch lines! It is not a HaHa! comedy, but a very interesting, fast paced romantic thriller comedy which keeps you glued to your seat)
Story: Good (It is simple, it is entertaining and it is executed really well)
Cinematography: Excellent (We finally see a Pakistani film which is not confined to a room or a house as a set. It shows real Mauritius).
Sound Design: Very good
Editing: Excellent (Crisp! Crisp! Crisp! Not for a moment you feel that the film is dragged)
Background score: Very good (Ali Sher has returned to the lime light with this background score. Excellent work!)
Music: Good (There are only 3 songs in the film!)
Casting: Very good (Adeel Hashmi is the best choice of all. Adeel Hashmi plays an interesting character. The look in his eyes, and his cold stare is defining. Sanam is really good choice for Aaliya. Mohib too has done justice to his character)
Rating: 8.5/10
Bachaana is a simple, family entertainment which everyone can enjoy. It is definitely a must watch for all!
