KARACHI – The first trailer of much-awaited film Dhai Chaal, featuring Ayesha Omar and Shamoon Abbasi as main characters, has been released.
Dhai Chaal, a project of Abbasi, is based on the story of Kulbhushan Jadhav, an agent of India spy agency RAW arrested from Pakistani province of Balochistan.
The film covers the time period when Jadhav was active in Balochistan and making attempts to sabotage the China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) project. The Indian spy was handed death sentence in 2017.
Ayesha Omar has essayed the role of a journalist who explains about what was happening in the province at the time while Abbasi played Jadhav.

The first trailer for Dhai Chaal based on Kulbhushan Jadhav. ‘Yeh Bollywood nahi hai jahan tum Indians her jang jeet jatay ho [This is not Bollywood where you Indians win every battle].’ This is a humble tribute to our beloved actor Rasheed Naz”.
