Description

Dive into Lahore’s film entertainment scene with “True Colors of Filmic Fairies,” a book that escorts readers through the scandalous corridors of Urdu dailies and showbiz periodicals. Khurshid Alam passionately guides you into the shadowy recesses of Pakistan’s esteemed film heroines, unveiling their covert love affairs, closely guarded secrets, and silent struggles.

Far from being just sensational gossip, Alam’s analysis skillfully intertwines these actresses’ fluctuating personal and professional journeys with their socio-economic and cultural backdrop, shedding light on Lollywood’s leading ladies’ often enigmatic personal histories.

Translated faithfully from its original Urdu title “Filmi Pariyo Key Par Purzey,” this compelling read is perfect for Lollywood enthusiasts, film aficionados, and anyone eager to delve into the stories concealed behind the glimmers of the silver screen.
