Sohai Ali Abro has been around the industry for quite some time, now. And we have pretty much been in love with her for a while
While she’s had a very bubbly, chirpy image before
One we have seen on screen, on the red carpet and in her general life
Her new film is all set to change that perspective
The film looks raw, and filled with emotions and scenery
The story is one where Sohai is breaking stereotypes and going against the norms of society
Based on the life of Zenith Irfan, the woman who took it upon herself to travel around Pakistan on a bike. And went ahead with her resolve.
The trailer starts off with Sohai sitting with Ali Kazmi where he acts like controlling man
It then moves into showing Sohai’s struggle with getting into work via public transport
There is also a blink and miss shot of Sohai in a wheelchair, holding onto imaginary bike handles, that makes us wonder just how badly our hearts are going to break while watching this film
Even within the 2 minutes of the trailer, she is shown to be facing backlash and negativity from all those around her
Whether it was at home
At work
Or even from the man she is with
There are glimpses of both happiness
And sadness in her life
The film will take us on a journey through Sohai/Zenith trying to fulfill her father’s wish to travel to Khunjerab on his motorcycle
It seems like such a heartwarming story so far, and we absolutely cannot wait for it
And people are already in awe of it!
