Janaan

JANAAN (Soul), filmed at exquisite locations in Swat and northern areas of Pakistan, is a movie aimed at bringing to life a culture that has long been overshadowed, and highlights the very essence of “Pathan” culture. It revolves around Meena (Armeena Rana Khan) and her return from Canada to attend her cousin’s wedding back home. While trying to adapt to her ethnic roots, she often finds herself in hilarious situations. Story takes an interesting spin when Meena finds out that her family is secretly setting her up to marry either one of her cousins, Daniyal (Ali Rehman Khan) or Asfandyar (Bilal Ashraf). It gets more and more captivating and complex with Asfandyar being the arrogant Pathan with whom she shares a love-hate relationship, and Daniyal a cool “Islamabadi Boy” who can get away with his irresistible charms and green eyes.
