The cast and crew of the upcoming movie “Hira Mani” were brutally attacked on the set in an unexpected turn of events. Cast members present at the attack were actor Mani, actress Hira Mani, actor Gule Rana, and young actor Falak Shehzad.
The intruders assaulted some of the crew members while robbing them of their valuables, including cash and pricey equipment. The production staff is rattled up by this incident, and their safety on set is now a major issue.
The film’s director, Nabeel Qureshi, shared information about the incident on social media and urged the Sindh police to pursue criminal charges against those responsible. He stated in his statement, “This is unacceptable, and we won’t let such cowardly actions stop us. The government has a duty to safeguard the safety of persons employed in the film industry because it is a crucial component of our nation’s culture and economy.”

The attack has frightened the actors and crew, and it is yet unclear how the movie will be made in the future. Many in the business are demanding stronger security measures to protect those working in the film industry because violence has previously interrupted film projects.
This terrible occurrence serves as a reminder of the necessity for increased security and safety measures for all film industry workers. We anticipate prompt police action in identifying the offenders and prosecuting them. The cast and crew of “Hira Mani” are in our hearts and prayers during this trying time.
