Reading Time: < 1 minuteNehr Ghar’s debut production Laal Kabootar, helmed by director Kamal Khan with music by Taha Malik and cinematography by Mo Azmi, seems to be on a roll. Having been selected as Pakistan’s official entry to the Academy Awards, the film has now fetched the Best Feature Film Award at the Vancouver International South Asian Film Festival 2019 just three days ago.
Director Kamal Khan was present at the ceremony where he received the award on the Closing Night & Awards Ceremony which was held at Surrey, British Columbia.
Starring Mansha Pasha and Ahmed Ali Akbar, a hustling taxi driver, it is a film where Karachi is as much a part of the narrative as the lead characters whose paths cross in strange circumstances.
