Shaan is writing the script of what is being termed as ‘love action packed film’.
The untitled project will be produced under the banner of Ad-filmmaker Asadul Haq’s company ‘SHINY TOY GUNS’ and will be directed by Asad himself. This will also mark Asad’s debut as a feature filmmaker.
For Shaan, however, the interest in screenwriting is a part of extending his father’s legacy.
“Writing has been our family tradition. My father Riaz Shahid has written great films like Zarqa, Yeh Amaan, Shaheed, Susraal & Badnaam. I always enjoyed and had the passion for story-telling but it was very difficult for me to write as I was scared of not coming up to the standards set by my father,” said Shaan in a statement issued by ‘SHINY TOY GUNS’.
Shaan went on to add that his confidence over storytelling skills has increased over time and since Asad is a great filmmaker, his screenplay would be in safe hands.
The project will be the first co-production of ‘SHINY TOY GUNS’ and ‘Riaz Shahid Films’. The movie is slated for release in 2015.
