“It’s a very proud moment for us to show the film in UAE,” said Farjad Nabi, who co-director Zinda Bhaag with Meenu Gaur. The movie revolves around the qualms of three Pakistani men in their 20s, who wish to make a living anywhere but in their own country.
The comedy underlines a pertinent and serious issue of how people resort to illegal immigration means and face grave consequences thereafter. The film has been described as quirky and fun but with a message.
Zinda Bhaag was commended by a foreign viewer for being a “powerfully written and entertaining” film. The film has a great number of Indian actors. Gaur said, “It made more sense to get crew members from India as India and Pakistan have a shared culture. It was the best decision we made.”
