The footfalls at Pakistani cinema halls went down when Indian movies were banned during the Eid period, but Salman Khan-starrer “Dabangg” has created a buzz and moviegoers are once again thronging the theatres.
Produced by Salman’s younger brother Arbaaz Khan, the funny cop drama with a catchy storyline and enchanting music has not only enthralled audiences in India but also witnessed an overwhelming response in Pakistan.
Rizwan, a booking clerk at Cinestar cinema in Lahore, said the movie was released in Pakistan Sep 17, a week after its India release, and “families have started returning to the cinemas for Indian movies. The cinema hall is more than 70 percent full during all ‘Dabangg’ shows.”
Ever since then president Pervez Musharraf lifted more than four decades of a ban on Indian movies three years ago, the Pakistani cinema halls have got a new lease of life.
