Totally Awesome Movie
25 July 2007 | by – See all my reviews

salamz Through out my life i lived with this regret that Pakistan never produced a movie worth even talking but this movie made me feel very proud of being Pakistani.

Making movie on such a controversial topic is really a bold move by Shoaib Mansoor.

I appreciate Geo Movies to come up with such a wonderful movie.

Here in my city they say 'jainay Lahore nai takya o jamya nai' (meaning ye ain't born if ye didn't see Lahore) but now i say you haven't watched a real movie if you haven't watched ' khuda kay liay' I totally recommend this movie to ALL Pakistani Nation.
