TV actress Sana Javed, who recently dropped out of Amir Mohiuddin’s upcoming film, Rangreza, that features Gohar Rasheed and Bilal Ashraf, has bagged a lead role in Yasir Nawaz’s next film opposite Danish Taimoor. Titled Mehrunnisa We Lub You, the film is yet another romantic comedy and features the actress in the titular role.
“I am playing Mehrunnisa in the film,” Javed told Instep. “It is a progressive character and the film carries a very strong message for viewers.”
Mehrunnisa We Lub You marks Javed’s debut on the big screen. Earlier, she was reportedly starring in Rangreza as the female lead but eventually left the film due to undisclosed family issues. The Rangreza role, meanwhile, has been taken up by one Urwa Hocane who is flying high after creating positive buzz for her remarkable performance in the TV drama serial, Udaari.
Coming back to Mehrunnisa We Lub You, the film also stars veteran actor Javed Sheikh in a prominent role (besides Javed and Taimoor). Sheikh and Taimoor were also part of Nawaz’s last film, Wrong Number that earned mixed reviews from viewers and critics.
Javed rose to fame with drama serial Pyarey Afzal in which she played a prominent role alongside Hamza Ali Abbasi and Ayeza Khan. The actress is currently showcasing her abilities as an actor in drama serial Zara Yaad Kar as a rebellious girl who betrays her husband.
