Resham is returning to the big screen in a lead role for Shoaib Sultan’s new project, Gunjal, alongside actor Ahmed Ali Akbar. The star shared the news on Facebook and said she is both scared and excited. “People say it’s my grand return to the cinema, but I say I was never separated from cinema,” she wrote. Her most recent film appearance was a cameo role in The Legend of Maula Jatt. Before that, she starred in 2015’s SwaaRangi. “Director Shoaib Sultan’s Gunjal is a very special film for me – it is cinema without a reason, which I always wanted to do but unfortunately never got a chance to do. But ages later, when I was told Gunjal’s story, I immediately expressed my interest because the time has come for us to talk about these important issues,” she said. Adding further the actress shared, “This is a film that will always be close to my heart.” The actor told a publication that this is a film of an “international level.” Though she wasn’t able to reveal much, she did share the names of her costars – Akbar, Amna Ilyas and Ahmad Ali Butt. She also expressed her desire to share screen with Ahmed Ali Akbar after watching Parizaad, which came true.
