The first teaser of the film was released in 2020 after a long and tiresome wait. However, the release got delayed yet again due to Covid. Shaan, who has written and directed the film as well, shared its teaser and trailer later with a promise that it will be out soon. The actor is also playing the lead role in Zarrar.
The power-packed trailer of the film promises a dark, gritty and gory story; something that we haven’t seen before in Pakistani films. It introduces us to the titular character Zarrar, who was a part of a special unit of ISI that is out there “to eliminate the threats to the country before they happen”. In the film, Zarrar believes that “men die, wars don’t die” and he is on a mission to “find peace”.
We are introduced to a bunch of new characters played by veteran actors such as Nadeem Baig, who appears to be Zarrar’s mentor as Major General Mujtaba. There is late Rashid Naz, Shafqat Cheema, Nayyaz Ejaz, all of whom are seen as antagonists. Kiran Malik plays Shaan Shahid’s love interest who seems to be abducted and tortured by the enemy.
