It is a well-known fact that Waar has become the highest-grossing Pakistani film of all time, but will it remain the highest-grossing film within Pakistan?
The movie’s latest competition is in the form of the third instalment of Bollywood franchise Dhoom. While Waar has earned a total of Rs230 million, Dhoom 3 isn’t far behind, and has raked in a sizeable Rs225 million.
There is a fair chance that Dhoom 3 will eventually be the clear winner of this race, and there are a number of reasons to support this. Firstly, it has almost equalled the total business of Waar in only 26 days, while it took Waar 36 days to reach the Rs200 million mark, and the latter is still playing on limited screens. With regard to screens, Dhoom 3 was released on 56 screens simultaneously, while Waar premiered on 52. That however, doesn’t make a significant difference. Dhoom 3 was expected to have crossed Waar’s record by now, but the release, and positive response to Dedh Ishqiya in local theatres has slowed down revenues for the Aamir Khan starrer.

The most anticipated and hyped Pakistani movie, Waar, which was also a hit at the local box office, is the highest rated feature film of 2013, according to IMDb.
The movie was given a rating of 9.1 out of 10 in a polling based on more than 10,000 users rating, ranking above films like The Wolf of Wall Street and Gravity. No Bollywood film made it to the top five. However, Farhan Akhtar’s Bhaag Milkha Bhaag sits comfortably at a position of number 8. Despite such impressive public statistics, the movie did not make it anywhere in the top ten of IMDb’s MOVIE meter.
Director Bilal Lashari, enthusiastic about the public opinion, shared his feelings with The Express Tribune, saying “This was not just a reaction to a film, but a show of immense love and support from proud fellow Pakistanis and a new beginning for our national cinema.”

Actor Shaan has once again proven that he remains the unbeatable, true star of Pakistani cinema as his much-hyped action thriller Waar broke all records against estimates.
Waar opened Wednesday on 42 screens across Pakistan and set a new record of box-office collections pertaining to Eid openings. After a first day opening of Rs11.4 million (exact figures: Rs11,397,930.00), Bilal Lashari’s big budget flick earned a total of Rs42.6 million (42,606,655.00) till Friday night, breaking all previous records of Eid collections. Waar has also broken first day record set by King Khan’s Chennai Express that had earned around nine million rupees on Eidul Fitr. If this remains to be the trend then Waar is expected to earn a total of Rs60 million or more in its first week, which will also beat Chennai Express‘s all-time high first week collections by a few millions.
Waar‘s first week on the box office will be considered of nine days since the collections from this Wednesday (first day of Eid) to next Friday will be collectively calculated. If Waar continues doing great at the box office then it is expected to earn an overall total of Rs120 million. However, an important trend has come to the fore. While Main Hoon Shahid Afridi covered the total business of Chambaili just in its first week similarly, Waar will supersede MHSA’s total business in its first week of running. But, Waar’s business is expected to face a major decline Monday onwards due to the end of a long weekend. Nonetheless, if it maintains its first-weekend run in the following weekends as well, then it will be considered the second blockbuster of modern-day Pakistani cinema, after Bol.

Waar: ‘Girls can do action scenes too '
One would expect Pakistan’s first major action-thriller to keep the fighting scenes focused on male characters. But Waar
makers have something different up their sleeves. The film releasing on
Eidul Azha features singer-turned-actor Meesha Shafi and TV actor
Ayesha Khan, who are all set to show some stellar action stunts.
“I wanted headstrong dominating females in the films,” says producer Hassan Waqas Rana, adding that Khan plays the role of a chief communication and intelligence officer at a counter-terrorism agency. “The girls had to go through rigorous training, and Ayesha had to carry a weapon at all times. So, her way of walking also changed.” Without giving away too much, he adds that Shafi will be seen in a “dominating mode that builds the action of the film.”
Khan plays an overconfident and unapologetic agent. “I wanted to show that girls can do action sequences, too,” she tells.“For the first time, I got the chance to be part of action sequences and use real weapons.” She adds that due to Waar’s “sophisticated cinematography”, the project will be distinctly different from others.
The actor admits she had to take a break from television which is her forte, but she doesn’t regret the decision one bit as she feels Waar will revive stakeholders’ confidence in the industry. “We all had been working independently for quite some time but this has brought us together for the first time,” says Khan, referring to her co-stars Shaan, Shamoon Abbasi, Shafi, Ali Azmat and Hamza Ali Abbasi.
Waar has been shot primarily in English, a different challenge altogether for actors who have largely done projects in Urdu. “I have always acted in Urdu. I would joke in the middle of the scenes that it’s so hard to cry in English,” she says with a laugh.
Expectations surrounding the movie are mounting up and rightfully so. Waar has been in production for over two years and is finally complete. Cast member Abbasi admits this was bound to happen as the current infrastructure and support are not developed enough to cater to such large-scale projects. “I am certain that this movie will set a [new] standard. It will be the one to watch out for,” he says, proud of the team’s accomplishments.
“For most of us, it was not a professional commitment, but more a commitment of passion,” he continues, adding that the actors have worked hard to make the film as close to reality as possible.
Azmat had turned down several television projects just to be part of Waar as he was enamoured by the freshness of the project, Abbasi reveals. “In my case, I was involved from the beginning, so I grew up with this.
