Al-POWERED SALAHUDDIN
2026-02-08
The Pakistan filmindustry may not be producing a large number of films each year, but it is, for sure, trying to keep up with technological developments shaping the art of filmmaking. On January 30, The Next Salahuddin, Pakistan`s first AI-powered feature film, hit cinema screens nationwide. The movie conceptualised by Ustadh Asim Ismail and written by Farhan Siddiqi is inspired by Muslim history and the enduring spirit of Gaza. It also poses a thoughtprovoking question: `Can history create another Salahuddin?` It`s a question that feels especially relevant today.
