Pakistani cinema in 2027 is taking shape title by title, not as one big announcement. The clearest dates so far point to Eid ul Fitr 2027, with a Punjabi comedy leading the slate, plus a January 2027 film already teasing, and a star pairing reported for later in the year.
The slate is still early. Many films have a title and a target, but no full trailer, no final cast poster, and no locked release week. That is normal for Pakistani cinema, where Eid dates are claimed first and details follow.
This guide pulls together what is actually announced or reported, so you can see what is real, what is reported, and what is still just talk.

Jodi Salamat Rave leads the Eid slate


Imran Ashraf and Kinza Hashmi will star together in a Punjabi comedy film set for Eid ul Fitr 2027. The film is titled Jodi Salamat Rave, per Trending in Social coverage from October 21, 2026. Yasir Abid directs it, and Naseem Vicky wrote the screenplay.
The cast also includes Asma Abbas, Honey Albela, and Naseem Vicky himself. Kunhar Productions produces the film. Both lead actors shared Instagram stories about the project with the message See you at the cinema, per The Current.
Imran and Kinza previously appeared together in Kattar Karachi, a 2024 action thriller. This new film moves them into comedy, with Punjabi humour, romance, and family entertainment at its heart, per the same reports.
One report said about 95 percent of shooting is complete, based on actor Sachal Afzal sharing that figure. That suggests the film is close to ready, well ahead of Eid. But a shoot percentage from a cast member is not the same as a locked release date from a distributor.
Eid ul Fitr is the biggest cinema window in Pakistan. A Punjabi comedy with familiar TV faces fits that window well, because families want light, fun films during the holiday. Jodi Salamat Rave is the most concrete 2027 title so far for that reason.

Anjanay and the January 2027 window


Anjanay is the next concrete title. Kakhan Films released an official teaser with the line In Cinemas Jan 2027. Khurram Aleem Khan directed the film, and Kakhan Films presents it.
The teaser and motion posters have rolled out cast reveals in stages. A second motion poster introduced more cast members, with a song date of November 15, 2026, and a note that the film is coming to cinemas in 2027.
That staggered reveal is a common plan for smaller Pakistani films. It builds a fan base on YouTube and social media before a full trailer. It also means you should not expect a full plot summary yet. The makers are revealing faces first, story second.

January is a quieter window than Eid, but it can work for a film with a strong teaser. If Anjanay holds January 2027, it will be one of the first Pakistani films of the year, and it will set the tone for the slate that follows.


A star pairing reported for 2027


Fawad Khan and Ayeza Khan are reported to share the big screen for the first time in a Nadeem Baig film. The Express Tribune reported the pairing, with a reported 2027 release, and it noted the film would mark Ayeza's film debut.
Baig is known for Love Guru, and he has a strong record with commercial Pakistani films. A Fawad and Ayeza pairing is a big deal for fans, because both stars built their fame on television, in dramas like Humsafar for Fawad and Mere Paas Tum Ho for Ayeza.
But this project is the least concrete of the three. Reports call it reportedly set for 2027, not locked for a date. No title has been confirmed in the reports cited here, and no trailer exists yet.
Treat it as a lead to watch, not a booking. If Baig announces a title and a start date, it will jump to the top of the 2027 slate. Until then, it sits behind Jodi Salamat Rave and Anjanay in certainty.

What the slate still needs


Pakistani cinema needs more than three titles to fill a year. It needs Eid ul Adha films, summer films, and winter releases. Those titles may come from TV stars moving to film, from Punjabi cinema, and from independent films that break out on YouTube first.
The 2027 slate also needs distribution clarity. A film can shoot 95 percent and still shift dates if cinemas, distributors, or marketing plans change. Eid dates are prized, and clashes can push a film by weeks.
For fans, the best plan is simple. Follow Jodi Salamat Rave for Eid ul Fitr, follow Anjanay for January, and watch for a Baig title announcement. Those three threads will tell you how strong 2027 really is.
If you want to support Pakistani cinema, start with those titles, share their teasers, and check cinema listings closer to each date. Early buzz helps small films get screens, and screens decide whether a film lives or dies in its first week.
Unconfirmed or reported, not stated as confirmed fact: The Fawad Khan and Ayeza Khan pairing and its 2027 date are reported, not confirmed by a title announcement. The 95 percent shoot figure for Jodi Salamat Rave is from a cast report, and full release weeks for Anjanay beyond January 2027 are not confirmed.
