“Karachi Se Lahore is a laugh out loud comedy and I hope everyone has fun watching it. True revival of Pakistani cinema started with Shoaib Mansoor’s Khuda Kay Liye and that is when I decided to make a film. It has taken us a lot of years but we are part of the first ten to fifteen films of the new age Pakistani cinema and the revival that is coming with it. We will need the audience’s support, not just for this film but for all new Pakistani films.” Adding further, Wajahat said: “The cast members are my close friends and that is why there is a lot of synergy. We worked as friends and you can see the chemistry on-screen, especially in the film’s comedic scenes! Watch Karachi Se Lahore and enjoy the laughs!”
