The Bollywood film has been heavily criticised for its negative portrayal of Pakistan's neighbourhood, Lyari, and a senior minister, Sharjeel Inam Memon, called Dhurandhar a conspiracy against Pakistan.

While announcing the release of the most-awaited movie, he wrote on X, "Lyari is not violence it is culture, peace, talent, and resilience. Next month 'Mera Lyari' will release, showing the true face of Lyari: peace, prosperity, and pride.”

Mera Lyari will star Ayesha Omar, Dananeer Mobeen, Sammiya Mumtaz and Nayyar Ejaz in the main lead roles.

The official release date for the Pakistani film has not been announced as of yet.
