Ho Mann Jahaan is coming of age film which tackles youth problems; their emotions, their relationships and does it quite well...
Starting from acting department everyone did great. The main cast stands out and everyone does exceptionally well. Sheryar Munawar becomes the star of the show and plays his character very well. Mahira Khan gives another beautiful performance and Adeel Hussain played this character extremely well . I was amazed to see Sonya Jehan play her character with certain kind of subtlety .
Well I have already praised Asim but if have a problem with Asim its his writing which left alot of things a bit confused. One thing which film tackles is society's continuous reference of religion in pursuing certain professions like music in the film but if your religion does not stop you from pursuing certain professions then where the hell were references in the film so the makers could satisfy their audiences which was supposedly the main theme which this film tried to tackle and the film could have been a little shorter. This is a testament to the fact that our films lack smooth editing..
The music is like a breath of fresh air which makes the film's long runtime bearable and enjoyable for you..
For all its flaws, Ho Mann Jahaan feels like a film (finally) and I am very happy that Asim gave this beautiful film to the industry...
