Family re-unions, outing plans, and lots and lots of entertainment!
Eid is the festivity we all await in our monotonous lives, and oh what fun it all is.
After Ramadan, the joy of Eid is doubled as it feels like a reward to celebrate the washing away of sins and the incredible test of tolerance during the month.
To cash in on the Eid holidays, film-makers schedule most of their films for Eid, of course.
The following Pakistani films will be releasing all over Pakistan on Eid:
Yalghaar (30th June)
