Potterheads in Pakistan transform GC university campus into Hogwarts
Pakistani Potterheads into Hogwarts with GC University!
Potterheads from Government College University (GCU) in Lahore are changing the university’s rustic and picturesque campus into Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
In honor of the Harry Potter films’ 20th anniversary, GCU students are hosting a week-long festival. With complete costumes, props, and a showing of their very own fan-made sequel, The Last Follower and the Ressurection of Voldemort.
CG University Lahore Festival is Hogwarts themed!
The film was originally shot and premiered in March 2020 and has a trailer that will make any Potterhead jump up and down in enthusiasm.
However, in anticipation of the film’s imminent screening at a festival, the trailer went viral on Twitter. That left countless social media users in amazement of the caliber of work that went into production. The 84-minute film features stunning visuals and amazing CGI, allowing the students at the institution to show off their talents to their full potential.

The costumes worn by the performers are developed and made by GCU students. They are accurate to the novels and movies, down to the house scarves!
Twitter loves the ‘not-so-desi’ version of CG University
Students and GCU alumni Umer Darr, Jazib Alram, Mariam Hassan Naqvi, Talha Chahour, Dua Marium, Sheikh Mubashir, and Habib Chaudary were among the primary cast members of the film. The film was released under the banner of Khayaali Productions.
Furthermore, the GCU campus, with its large windows and gorgeous brick buildings with towering arches, is the perfect setting for any Potterhead’s fan-fiction fantasies.
Moreover, the students’ hard efforts were praised by the majority of social media users, with one user stating, “Safe to say all these channels with their terrible content should just quit.” These students did an outstanding job!” “This looks really fantastic tbh!” said another, echoing the sentiment. We should support young filmmakers and actors so that we can finally see quality films made in our own cinema.”
A user shares for CG University Hogwarts,
Furthermore, another user shares,
Another person tweeted on the possibilities of gifted children using their abilities to generate new ideas. “Actually blown away by this,” they wrote. Also consider a desi wizarding school, complete with all the glitz and glam with GC University Hogwarts. “Someone, please get these kids to work.”
Last but not the least, this makes you realize that the younger generation’s film business has a lot of potential, and there’s a lot more to it than just domestic politics and saas-bahu drama. In particular with their humor, talent, and aptitude, these kids can do anything if they are given the correct platform.
Friday Flix Movie Review: Nightcrawler
Nightcrawler Movie Review
A nightcrawler, explaining to be an earthworm used as fish bait. That doesn’t strike you as especially threatening. Lou Bloom, the focus of Dan Gilroy’s intelligent, semi-profound new thriller, is no squirming victim. He’s a predator and a parasite, a bottom feeder who will find you when you’re at your most vulnerable and bite you while taking your photo. Nightcrawler’s cast includes Jake Gyllenhaal, Rene Russo, and Riz Ahmed in leading roles.
Not your ordinary Nightcrawler
Lou is a freelance news cameraman who captures video of weeping widows, home invasion casualties, and human roadkill for Los Angeles TV stations. He is played by Jake Gyllenhaal, who has the smile of a Boy Scout laced with lunacy. He’s the TMZ version of the original Paparazzo from Fellini’s La Dolce Vita.

The obsession with gore for Nightcrawler
Lou, who lives alone in a small flat, has a dream that gradually becomes an obsession. He sets out to corner the market after learning that local television stations will pay high money for films of accidents, fires, and crime scenes – the bloodier, the better. He races around the nocturnal streets with a police scanner and a cheap video camera, seeking gruesome pictures he can sell.
A partner adds up!
Lou battles with rivals and recruits a wide-eyed side partner (Riz Ahmed) as his firm grows, all the while justifying himself in management and self-help lingo. He is a quick study, and his amoral enthusiasm propels him from eager voyeur to something far worse. His sincere faith in himself is both amusing and disconcerting, and his utter disregard for ethical limits provides for some rather naughty entertainment. But that’s all there is to it. “Nightcrawler” is a sleek, superficial film that, like Lou himself, aspires to be more.
Nightcrawler – A modest Urban Thriller
Aside from its psychological depth, Nightcrawler works well as a short thriller, with cinematographer Robert Elswit giving the city night a chilly, metallic shine.

Final verdict
In its clammy, overdone way, “Nightcrawler” is a modest and nicely produced urban thriller, intriguing and enjoyable. While Mr. Gyllenhaal’s portrayal isn’t particularly convincing, it is methodical and precise in its creepiness, and Mr. Gilroy keeps the audience on edge, half cheering for Lou to succeed and partly dreading what he will do next.

Thursday Tunes: Album Dead Beat Poets by Abdullah Siddiqui is a sonical treat
In 2018, Abdullah Siddiqui was introduced to me. His voice was sharp, clear, and underrated. Even back then, it was apparent that the 18-year-old was destined for more, and nothing makes me happier than seeing him ascend the ladder to new heights.
Abdullah Siddiqui
When Siddiqui’s original song Resistance was featured on season five of Nescafe Basement, he became a household name. The kid looked satisfied with the current version of his famous single, which was produced and reworked by master Xulfi himself. However, Nescafe Basement was only the start. Dead Beat poets, Siddiqui’s third studio album, is an ode to the romanticization of today’s youth, according to him.
Dead Beat Poets by Abdullah Siddiqui
The album “Dead Beat poets” is the result of soul-searching and the mundane aspects of existence. Abdullah Siddiqui added a lovely wordy concept to this album. The teenage crooner didn’t want to write music for “big arenas,” but rather for those who wanted to address their emotions.
The record is a romanticized depiction of what it’s like to be young, and it’s really honest. It’s not smart; it’s straightforward. The tunes are really accurate. The album, in particular, holds a lot of emotional weight.
The album
Dead Beat Poets contains 11 songs. This new album, according to Abdullah, is him – raw and walls down. The pleasure, the recklessness, the hedonism, the heartache, the unrequited love, the messiness, the awkwardness, the nights etherealized in banter and shared suffering could all be sensed in it, and it was eventually the whole point behind it as well. He let his defenses down and allowed himself to romanticize his existence. These songs read like pages from a diary.
Dead Beat poets side B
The album’s side B is more “sonically explorative” than the original. Siddiqui said in an Instagram post. He added that the songs in the albums have been written from a place of personal “honesty and earnestness.”
Moreover, he wrote, “Regarding the album’s diverse sound and content that ranges from rock to orchestral to an “audio piece constructed mostly of foley.”

Siddiqui said that the “inconsistency was completely honest” to his circumstances. “I made this album in a time when my professional life was the best it’s ever been and my personal life was collapsing altogether. So I allowed myself to translate that messiness into sound, and to let go of some of the meticulousness that’s defined my work in the past.”
Listen to the full album here:
Siddiqui is also the producer of Natasha Noorani’s hit song “Choro” and Meesha Shafi’s new single “Hot Mango Chutney Sauce.”

Veena further revealed: “I’m extremely shy and an introvert, I find it difficult to deal with people therefore I feel comfortable in burkha.”
She was asked if the Taliban is imposing a dress code for everyone, whether she is in favor of this act. Veena stated, “I believe Afghan people will happily follow the dress code because Afghanis are well aware of their traditions and culture.”

Veena’s comeback in the industry
Veena Maik was asked why she decided to return to the entertainment world after a 12-year hiatus. “It’s been 12 years since the last season of ‘Hum Sub Umeed Say Hain,’” she confessed.
