The Legend of Maula Jatt is scheduled to release on Thursday but the ticket price is higher than usual. The price will be raised by Rs200 in bigger cities and Rs100 in smaller ones. Filmmaker Nadeem Mandviwalla, who owns Atrium Cinemas in Karachi, says that ticket price will only be raised for the first 11 days. The price will be reverted back to normal later.
Moreover, the makers announced that revenue from the first-day shows will be donated to flood victims. “This would be our small donation to catastrophe-people in the country,” says a statement. “We had decided to give our preview shows’ earnings to the flood relief fund,” the statement said.
The Legend of Maula Jatt is said to be the most expensive film in Pakistani cinema history, starring A-list actors such as :
- Hamza Ali Abbasi
- Fawad Khan
- Mahira Khan
- Humaima Malick
- Gohar Rasheed, and others.
Yunus Malik produced the Punjabi-language version of the 1979 hit Maula Jatt. The screenplay was written by Bilal Lashari while the dialogue was written by Nasir Adeeb.
