Although the directors don’t want to reveal the story of the film but it has been told that the actors have a lot in common with the lawyers.

“I'm always evasive about my scripts, it's just my style of working," Qureshi said.

"I don't like to talk about things in progress. I will say that it's a social comedy with a very interesting story line. There are many aspects a lot of people will be able to relate to." He added.

Om Puri is a prominent personality who supports the Indo-Pak collaboration. This isn’t the first time that Mr. Puri will be performing a Pakistani role, his most memorable Pakistani character in the past was of Gerorge Khan in British comedy drama, “East is East and West is West”.

Besides the three actors mentioned above, the film also stars Ally Khan and Saboor Ali.

The movie is all set to hit the big screen this Eid ul Azha and while it will mark Om Puri's debut on the Pakistani screen, it might face tough competition from Janaan.

The trailer of the film will be released soon.
