Atiqa Odho has sparked a wave of nostalgia and excitement among fans after sharing a rare behind-the-scenes photo from the set of Neelofar. The veteran actor posted the candid moment on Instagram, capturing herself alongside superstar Fawad Khan in full character — a glimpse that instantly went viral across social media.
“Sweet moment captured with FawadKhan on the Neelofar movie set in Lahore. Memories to cherish,” Odho captioned the photo. The heartfelt snapshot shows the warm camaraderie between the two actors, prompting entertainment pages and fan accounts to circulate the image widely. Comments poured in expressing admiration, excitement and a renewed eagerness to experience the film on the big screen.
The BTS reveal comes at a time when buzz around Neelofar continues to build following its highly anticipated nationwide release. The film premiered last week with a glamorous red-carpet event at Cue Cinemas in Lahore, drawing some of the biggest names in Pakistan’s entertainment industry.
Fawad Khan and Mahira Khan arrived with their spouses, adding star power to an already glittering evening. The guest list included leading artists such as Atif Aslam, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Zeb Bangash, Sarmad Khoosat, Resham, Behroze Sabzwari, Fazal Qureshi, Madiha Imam and many more. Influencers like Ken Doll, Momin Saqib, Alishba Anjum and Alina Amir were also spotted interacting with fans and sharing live updates.
Neelofar, written and directed by Ammar Rasool and produced by Fawad Khan, marks the third on-screen collaboration of the beloved Humsafar duo — a pairing that has consistently captivated audiences. The film also features Sarwat Gilani, Behroze Sabzwari, Madiha Imam and Atiqa Odho in key roles.
The story revolves around Mansoor Ali Khan, a renowned novelist who returns to Lahore and forms an unexpected connection with Neelofar, a visually impaired young woman who experiences the world through sound, intuition and emotion rather than sight. Mahira Khan has described playing Neelofar as one of the most demanding roles of her career, requiring her to undergo deep emotional and sensory preparation to bring authenticity to the character.
As reactions to Odho’s BTS click continue to pour in, the moment has added yet another layer of sentimental charm to the film’s promotional journey. With its emotional narrative, powerful performances and star-studded cast, Neelofar is positioned as one of the standout cinema experiences of the year — and early audience feedback only heightens that impression.
