The forthcoming motion picture ‘Toofan’ is already touring the country and abroad – even though the crisis of the July Revolution interrupted it. But that doesn’t mean that the public has lost interest in watching Shakib Khan and Raihan Rafi films. Now, the movie is gearing up for another milestone in achieving its goal, hitting the Pakistani screens.

According to sources, Toofan is lined up for release in Pakistan – a rare stroke of luck for a Bangladeshi film. Production house Alpha Eye has confirmed that the Urdu dubbing of the film has already started and it will debut in Pakistan on November 1.

The film ‘Toofan’ earlier successfully released in Bangladesh, India, Australia, the USA, Canada, and England. Director Raihan Rafi expressed his shock about the film’s release in Pakistan: “I only came to know about it after Shakib bhai personally spoke to the distributors in Pakistan.” Their interest in the film is quite exciting for us.”
