Sheheryar Munawar, known for his talent in both acting and directing, achieved remarkable success with his directorial venture, the telefilm “Budhi Ghori Laal Lagam”. Amidst tough competition from other Eid ul Adha telefilms, this captivating production managed to secure the top spot, capturing the hearts of viewers with its exceptional cast and a refreshing storyline with a profound underlying message.
Penned by Sheheryar Munawar himself, the telefilm revolves around the lives of a couple in their 60s, Jahangir (portrayed by Salman Shahid) and Zubi (portrayed by Simi Raheal). Having devoted their entire lives to raising their children, Ayesha and Kareem, the couple now seeks to prioritize their own well-being and find happiness in each other’s company. However, their unconventional and carefree lifestyle, coupled with their spending habits, becomes a point of contention for their children.
“Budhi Ghori Laal Lagam” delves deep into the societal taboo associated with senior citizens leading independent lives and explores the varied reactions from different segments of society. While some admire and applaud the couple as “couple goals,” others criticize and demean them for daring to live a fulfilling and joyful life on their own terms.
Adding to the thought-provoking and entertaining moments brought to life by Simi Raheal and Salman Shahid, the telefilm features surprise appearances by Mahira Khan and Humayun Saeed, enhancing the overall grandeur and setting the tone for the rest of the production.
With Sheheryar Munawar at the helm as writer and director, “Budhi Ghori Laal Lagam” boasts a stellar cast including Salman Shahid, Simi Raheal, Ahsan Khan, Sarwat Gillani, Behroze Sabzwari, Asma Abbas, Huma Nawab, and Aadi Adeal Amjad, who deliver exceptional performances and contribute to the telefilm’s success.
