A masterpiece of aesthetics and exquisite restraint and great expressionist acting and cinematography that uses music by great auteur Amrohi as highest power operatic form composed by Khayyam Hema and dharam in their most artistic and purest movie ever , Production is even grander than Hollywood cleopatra and it’s the best movie in Urdu ever and breaks taboos about inter racial sex , feminism and sexual empowerment! The language is poetic and so is the cinematic execution! Only for true art connoisseurs
