Pakistan’s biggest stars, Mahira Khan and Fawad Khan, have announced that their film “Neelofar” will be released in theatres this winter, in 2025.
The news was shared through a joint Instagram post on September 24, 2025, with the caption, “Agli Mulaqat ka intezar rahay ga. Neelofar, this winter.” Filming was completed in December 2020 but was delayed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Covid halted Neelofar’s final 10 days of shooting in 2020. Mahira shared in April that year, “We don’t even know when it’ll be finished.” Despite setbacks, she posted set snippets, saying, “I take with me a piece of you… My darling Neelofar, I shall miss you.” The post is no longer on her Instagram.
For love.. and especially for those who have never given up on it.. #Neelofar 🪷
