Fimmakers Nabeel Qureshi and Fizza Ali Meerza are halting the shoot of their 2020 movie Fatman. In 2019, the duo announced that they will be releasing two films next year but it seems that it won’t be possible anymore.
The Na Maloom Afraad famed director was working on two projects, Quaid-e-Azam Zindabad and Fatman (which will highlight the issue of body shaming in our society).
While they have already wrapped up filming for the former, they won’t be able to continue the production for Fatman due to the coronavirus.
Nabeel Qureshi himself made the announcement on social media.
“Surrounded by concern regarding COVID-19, We at FilmWala Pictures have made the decision to postpone the shoot of our film “Fatman” We take the health and safety of our crew and actors seriously, In the meanwhile let’s pray for a healthier and safer world.”

“AlhumduliAllah it’s official. My next film and my first as a lead with these crazy people… Looking forward to make a great film with these great creative filmmakers and hope you’ll all love it as much as I love the script.”
