The film has some beautifully shot parts, such as the raw, sexual opening sequence. It would be fair to say that this film has added significantly to the Pakistani cinematic visual vocabulary.

Love Struck
The author, affectionately referred to as Sunshine by her loved ones, recently moved to London from New York. She is enjoying settling in while discovering the city with her 8-month-old daughter in tow. Watch this space for her musings on London, sweet treats (that she shouldn’t be consuming now that the baby is no longer an excuse!), parenting, decorating, and anything really that tickles her fancy!
