After turning heads with her rocking red carpet appearance at the 72nd Cannes Film Festival, actor Hina Khan unveiled the poster of her debut film Lines. The film is set in the backdrop of the Kargil War.
Hina took to Instagram to give us a glimpse into her character Nazia. “Emotions don’t change because of the borders in between, the life and plight of Nazia is a simple portrayal of any girl who faces the magnitude of ordinary challenges in a not so ordinary story. #Lines is my debut in films. I hope you all love it as much we loved it.This is the first look launched at Cannes and an official poster which depicts more than a poster can!”, she wrote.
The poster launch took place at the festival’s India Pavilion on Monday. After the first look, Hina, dressed in a chic green outfit, spoke about the film and her character.
The poster that has Hina's face visible through barbed wire, gives away the theme of the film. Lines depicts the story of a strong young woman portrayed by Hina living on the country's border (LoC) with special emphasis on her struggle.
The film is helmed by Hussain Khan, written by Kunwar Shakti Singh and Rahat Kazmi. Lines has been produced by Rahat Kazmi, Tariq Khan, Zeba Sajid and is co-produced by Jayant Jaiswal’s Hiro Faar Better films. The film also stars Farida Jalaal and Rishi Bhutani in pivotal roles.
Hina Khan made her much-awaited Cannes debut on 15 May and she looked like total princess while doing so. Dressed in a floor-length shimmery silver gown, the Kasautii Zindagii Kay actor was all smiles as she waved and smiled for everyone present.
