Producer Fizza Ali Meerza and director Nabeel Qureshi team up yet again with a strong message and a powerful cast to deliver a highly watchable film with a convincing flavour of culture, emotion and authenticity.
Load Wedding is the story of Raja (Fahad Mustafa) from Nirali, a small town in Central Punjab, Pakistan, where he runs a wedding decoration shop. Raja has an over-weight sister, Farhana (Faiza Hasan) and as per tradition, he cannot get married before she does. Farhana or "Baby Baji" is refused proposals not just because of her weight but also because of the dowry demands of prospective in-laws. This is not the end of Raja's troubles as he has loved Meeru (Mehwish Hayat) since the two were children but life and circumstances prevent them from getting together. In the initial part, Raja cuts a sorry figure as he grapples with various problems, ranging from financial difficulties to coping with orthodox, small-town family values. The film is about his struggles to rise above these obstacles and win the girl he loves.
