Paranda

Released: 1997
Starring: Khyaam Sarhadi, Saira Khan, Maria Wasti and Saleem Sheikh. It initially started out good, but I am beginnning to go off it, as Saleem Sheikh is taking drugs. But it's basically about the ills of society. I think Saira Khan (a newcomer) and Khyaam Sarhadi give the best performances. -Shazia

Other Comments: Not one of the best ones to watch. Saira does do a pretty good job being her first time. In the beginning the story resembled a Paki movie but things progressed after that. Maria Wasti has performed well since her debut. The story revolves around Khayyam Sarhadi giving a pranda to her daughter, which is forcefully taken away from her by the police. To Saira the pranda is a symbol of her father's love and her family's togetherness. The story progresses from there on.
