The 8th Jaipur Film Festival (JIFF) was held from January 2-January 6 at the pink city Jaipur, India. ‘Manto’ which marks the directorial debut of extremely talented Sarmad Khoosat at the silver screen was highly appreciated by the film critics and audience.

Undoubtedly, it was one of the crucial venture of Sarmad Khoosat as he also played the lead role of Saadat Hassan Manto in the film. But even with such a burden on his responsible shoulders, the director-actor of the film scintillated the film with his classical taste.

The film was a huge hit on the board in Pakistan and with such success, many were envious of the credibility of Sarmad Khoosat. Apart from all the applauses, ovations, many also tried to make this film fail on the board by terming it a controversial or a one sided story.
