1. Describe your Jalaibee experience in five words?
Zhalay Sarhadi: Exciting, cathartic, enjoyable, amusing and thrilling.
Wiqar Ali Khan: Enlightening, entertaining, twisted, roller-coaster ride and superb.
Danish Taimoor: It has been a roller-coaster ride, it involves highs and lows, good times accompanied by difficult times, it was dark but there was light at the same time. It can be said that I had a sweet but a twisted Jalaibee experience. I have learnt a lot about myself and I would love to do a film like Jalaibee in future as well.
2. Being a new genre for the audience what are your personal expectations from the film?
Zhalay: I hope that audiences have the same accepting attitude as they have towards western and Indian cinema and I am positive that this will give birth to a new era of Pakistani cinema.
Wiqar: To gloriously entertain all who watch it and to prove it to the world that a Pakistani film made by Pakistanis can be of international standards.
Danish: It’s really fun to be in a film that’s pure entertainment - a film people would want to go out and see. I am one of those people who can say, “Well look, something is going to happen. Let’s just keep trying, let’s not give up”. After all a film is a collective experience.
3. Your favourite dialog from the film?
Zhalay: “Hum lutay hue kisi ko kya loot sakte hain?”
Wiqar: “Me tera baap bol raha hon”
Danish: “Bhonkne me aur kaatne me bohat farq hota hai.”
4. Your best during and post-shoot moment in Jalaibee?
Zhalay: When all of us were before the media for press conference.
Wiqar: During the shoot, it was the entire experience of shooting the film with an incredible team that we had and post-shoot, promoting it, going to various places, meeting new people - it was great fun doing that.
Danish: The best moment I remember during the shoot of Jalaibee was the fight sequence between Billu, Bugga, Bunno and the Giant-Man Khan. I enjoyed a lot during that particular shoot. I have done a few ones in dramas earlier on but they were minor scenes. This was an intense fight sequence but it’s always fun to beat the goons and fight like a hero. Post-shoot moment was when I watched the first trailer of Jalaibee with our team - the very first time I saw it, it seriously took my breath away.
5. Why should people come to watch Jalaibee?
Zhalay: I would really want people to come because we have made a classy, slick, action thriller which is a new attempt and is known to be a worldwide accepted genre. I am sure it will deliver more than it promises.
Wiqar: They should definitely come because it’s a Pakistani film and it’s high time that we start owning and supporting our talent in all genres.
Danish: Jalaibee is not about social issues or something tragic - it’s a mix of fun, humour, action and animations - it’s an ideal fun film. The idea is original and it’s unusual so I think everybody will appreciate as we just want to bring smile on their faces along with bringing action and fun back in their lives - come and get some Jalaibee!
