Islamabad (Web Desk/Agencies): The 15th death anniversary of famous film director Pervaiz Malik is being observed today (Saturday).
The seasoned film director died of cardiac arrest in Islamabad on this day in 2008.
Born in 1937 in Karachi, Pervez Malik cultivated a certain type of cinema in Pakistan that has never been replicated.
He directed more than 20 films. His treasure trove of cinema includes "Heera Aur Pathar", "Ehsaan", "Doraha", "Meherbani", 'Qurbani", and the all-time blockbuster "Armaan".
Pervaiz Malik was the first qualified film director in the country to have a foreign degree. His craft, though, spoke volumes more, earning him the President’s Pride of Performance award for his directorial contributions.
