when you have to put a person on long ailment back on his feet you have to treat him with extra care, feed him mildly, concerning not to harshly expose him to reality. This is what director Nadeem Bayg did with this flick.Issues like cross cultural marriages , domestic violence, women empowerment and family politics are addressed in a very basic and entertaining manner to keep the Pakistani audiences not to be overdosed with the issues brought forwarded. I must say MPNJG is a great teamwork from writer to director to producers and the creative and technical people especially actors...all tried well to give their best and succeeded to a good extent. The sets locations and costumes are well worked upon, the production value looks like minted for the big screen and shows well off. Naveed Shahzad and sohail Ahmed's s characters of a Pakistani buzurgs reminds us of our buzurgs which we have never experienced in Bollywood movies and this gives us a moment of solace and "apnapan" (this is why we all love watching P movies of low quality even). Humayun and Mehwish perfect choice for hero and heroine and Mawra s acting skills reminds us of the vamp in 50 s which is a success for a negative roll. But the showstopper is Qamar sahib s dialogues and story pattern. He is a true big screen writer and knows how to do his job well. Ahmed Butt is cute and his comic timings are good, Behroz Sabzwari and Safina aapa were like the mention of Bank Alfalah and Mcdonalds in the movie :). Overall a must watch this festive season not just because Its an efforts that must be appreciated but its a paisa wasool kinda movie ...
