The Express Tribune spoke with executive Uzair Zaheer Khan about a arriving film, that is dictated for winter release.

Allahyar and a Legend of Markhor’s teaser will take your exhale away
Explaining a thought of a film, Khan didn’t utterly go into specifics, so building some-more oddity for a film. “Allahyar is a immature Pakistani child from a north, who has ideals and ambitions that get challenged when he’s thrown into an journey where he discovers a universe he never knew existed,” he said, adding that Allahyar and a Legend of Markhor is a coming-of-age story with a wildlife charge theme.
He pronounced that a aim was to make a film that’s entertaining, meaningful, and caters to a internal audiences in terms of language, enlightenment and values.
The expel of a film includes Ali Noor, Natasha Humaira Ejaz, Anam Zaidi and Azfar Jafri. With a ‘very-musical’ cast, a film is firm to have mixed songs.

Khan’s prior tour Burka Avenger had a graphic visible character with distinguished tone palettes. As to how Allahyar will be opposite from that, when it comes to universe building and treatment, Khan said, a tv array was really stylised and designed with mandate and constraints of a plan in mind. “With Burka Avenger we wanted to set a internal benchmark for charcterised series. Allahyar and a Legend of Markhor is a underline film and therefore requires a most aloft prolongation value,” he said. “As we aspire to eventually contest in a general marketplace with a uninterrupted films, we’ve attempted to broach tip quality, while gripping a cost of prolongation during standard with internal live movement films.”

The executive believes animation is a ideal middle for that. “Animation is a absolute medium. We feel it is obligatory on us that by a film, along with a full sip of entertainment, we try to move about certain change.”
Whether Allahyar is going to set a new benchmark when it comes to Pakistani charcterised films or not stays to be seen, though for now, Khan is clearly assured about a film. “We are looking brazen to creation Pakistanis unapproachable of what we’ve achieved here with this film,” he said.
