Long in production, Anjum Shehzad's Mah-e-Mir is at least set to release in cinemas on 6 May.
The producers released an official trailer which mixes scenes from the initial teaser with new visuals and more of Sarmad Sehbai's lovely dialogue.
Mah-e-Mir dances between the present and the past, as Fahad Mustafa stars as a writer struggling to grasp the mystique of the writer Mir Taqi Mir and then takes on the guise of the artist himself when the film travels back to the Mughal epoch. Iman Ali stars as Mir's object of yearning and her character is said to have a metaphorical importance in the film.
"I would prefer not to give away an excess but Mah-e-Mir is a film with a lot of subtexts. It's a film about thoughts. And Obviously, about Mir Taqi Mir too," shared the director Anjum Shehzad with Images.
"The film was shot for the most part in Karachi and we utilized detailed sets for a lot of the scenes," he included.
"The cast and crew are exceptional excited that the film is finally going to be released. It's now close to what we want it to look like," Anjum said, referring to the deferred release of the film, which was prior slated for a November 2015 release.
