Josh by Iram Parveen Bilal covers the different aspects of Pakistani society and its issues. Namely, activism and social classes among others.

Fatima, the bold yet ignorant Karachiite part of the elite upper class, sets out of to discover the reason behind her maid Nusrat’s sudden disappearance.

The film explores the various themes of activism as Fatima decides to intervene into the wrongs of society and attempts to rectify it. Furthermore, it also covers poverty and its effects on people living in harsh condition and also the constant battle of women’s rights.

Josh stars Pakistan’s many talents such as Aamina Sheikh, Mohib Mirza, Khalid Malik, Navin Waqar, Adnan Shah Tipu, Salim Mairaj, Kaiser Khan Nizamani, Nyla Jafri, Parveen Akbar, Ali Rizvi and Faizan Haqquee.

The film is another one of Pakistan’s highly anticipated ones to come out on Eid.-Text by Safa Gangat
