LAHORE – Sohai Ali Abro’s new biographic of Zenith Irfan ‘Motorcycle Girl’is making news for her amazing acting and storyline.
The movie started with a bang as the life of a working female in Pakistanis depicted perfectly. Topics like male dominance, harassment, workpressure and other issues are discussed in the film. The story is based onZenith Irfan who made a road trip to Khunjerab pass from Lahore onmotorcycle alone. The last wish of her father before passing away was tomake a trip on motorbike all the way to Khunjerab pass.
Sohai plays the role of Zenith who is struggling to meet the ends meet withher mother and younger brother to take care of. The movie shows how femalesare oppressed by even by their own family members as the ‘head of herfamily’ scrutinizes her for doing women empowering stuff.
Due to the patriarchal system she was forced to get engaged and soon to getmarried (fiction). It was natural for her husband to be male dominatingjust like her boss and men at her workplace who’d take all her credit. Sheconvinces her fiancée to let her fulfill her deceased fathers dream to ridethe motorbike from Lahore to Khunjerab. The movie depicts her societalproblems and personal empowerment.
Throughout her journey she has her fathers memories to support her andguide her but it was not only him her brother helped her learn how to ridethe bike and stood up for her (the next generations have a bit moreawareness). Despite her horrible accident which she met while reachingKhunjerab made her realize how people in northern areas are more womenempowering as she meets such people and stay with them to recover.
There her husband comes where she stands up for herself and her dreams. Sheends her engagement with him as she realizes this is not what she wants inlife. She completes her trip and makes news around the world empoweringother females despite the hate she got on social media from the so called‘educated ones’.
Zenith still continues to empower more females around Pakistan to stand upfor themselves despite all the negativity surrounding them. There were afew scenery shots which were repeated other than that the movie was amazing.
The issues discussed were apt and the storyline was amazing. Thevideography was really nice and we all can expect more good work from ourindustry. Sohai has done justice to her character.
