Naseeruddin Shah said no to Shoaib Mansoor's 'Bol'

Naseeruddin Shah said no to Shoaib Mansoor's 'Bol'
Bol is veteran TV director Shoaib Mansoor's second feature film. His first, Khuda Ke Liye, though a passionate and worthy work, and certainly one that deserved accolades for its bravery in tackling some of Pakistan's most complex social issues, lacked the artistic sophistication required to convincingly tell a story. Bol is all set for Eid release.

News is that Naseeruddin Shah, who has worked with Shoaib in his previously acclaimed ‘Khuda Ke Liye’ was offered the pivotal role of the father ‘Hakim Sahib’ done by Pakistani actor Manzar Sehbai in the movie, but could not do it as he had already signed another movie at the same time.

The actor went on to say, “I have had the good fortune to work in Shoaib Mansoor’s Khude Ke Liye and I consider it to be the most significant film that I’ve done in my life.”

The actor, after watching the movie was heard praising the director’s honest and impeccable work along with the superlative performances by all the actors. He said, “BOL is absolutely the kind of film that Khude Ke Liye should be followed up by. It deals with an even more important statement like faith and empowerment of women. I have seldom seen a statement made with as much power and feeling as this film. This is yet another film to be proud of. I can only find myself wishing I was a part of this film”.

Not only this, the actor loved the movie to such and extent that he is showing the film to his friends and family in a couple days!
