Luv Di Saun is a 2026 Pakistani romantic action drama film directed and produced by Imran Malik. It stars Farhan Saeed, Mamya Shajaffar, Mehrunnisa Iqbal, Rana Ejaz, Babar Ali, and Tabrez Khan in pivotal roles.
Plot The story follows Zarshaan (Farhan Saeed), a young man who returns from abroad and falls in love with Billo (Mamya Shajaffar), a woman trapped in a life controlled by a ruthless human trafficking gang. What begins as a tender romance quickly descends into a violent, high-stakes battle as Zarshaan fights to rescue Billo from the criminal underworld. Along the way, he encounters an eccentric friend and a larger-than-life police officer (Babar Ali) who intervenes after Zarshaan is brutally beaten by the gang. Blending dark social commentary on trafficking and survival with traditional romance, the film ends on an abrupt "To Be Continued" cliffhanger, setting up a potential sequel.
