Sajal Aly makes an appearance at the Toronto International Film Festival for the Premiere of What’s Love Got To Do With It and Pakistani fans can’t get enough!
Sajal Aly Hits Toronto International Film Festival & Pakistani Fans Are Swooned! Sajal Aly attends the premiere of What’s Love Got To Do With It At The Toronto Film Festival. The film premieres at the Festival and is due to release in Januray 2023.
Rarely if ever have we seen a British Pakistani show taking on local Pakistani stars. The makers usually limit themselves to British Pakistani actors. Hence Sajal Aly’s involvement in the project is a giant leap for (women) and mankind. Sajal has a massive fanbase and rightly so. She has been involved in projects that speak out of the box, across the border and in layered undertones – from Mom to Dhoop Ki Deewar, now What’s Love Got To Do With It and … everything in between! It is no mean feat to bring so much diversity to the table at such a young age and fan expectations are sky high because Sajal has decided to take on the role of Maymouna.

Shekhar Kapur & Jemima Khan’s What’s Love Got To Do With It just dropped its trailer and Pakistanis can’t wait for Sajal Ali to grace the screen as Maymouna. The film is scripted to be a RomCom but just a bit more, as the cast mentions a more meaningful message might be on the cards as well. #SajalAly #JemimaKhan #WhatsLoveGotToDoWithIt

Want To Know More about The Plot?
The film centers around a girl Zoe played by Lily James who has had her fair share of bad dates much to her mother, Cath’s (Emma Thompson) dismay. Zoe decides to document her childhood friend and neighbor, Kazim’s (Shahzad Latif) journey from London to Lahore as he decides to follow his parents’ footsteps and opt for an arranged marriage with a girl from Pakistan (our guesses is that the girl is going to be played by Sajal Aly but nothing is official yet!)
As Zoe sees life from a new lens and experiences a world unknown to her, she questions her take on love. Get more details here.
