The Pakistani soil is filled with stories of forgotten champions who lost their lives in the name of patriotism. One such story is that of Aitzaz Hassan, a 16-year-old boy who sacrificed his life on 6th January 2014 to avert a suicide bomb attempt at his school in Hangu.
The young soul’s sacrifice and courage saved the life of 2,000 children who can now live and do great things for Pakistan. Last year, the Lollywood veteran, Shehzad Rafique took the task of filming a biopic on the hero’s life.
The movie has now hit the cinemas and is reaping rave reviews by the cinema-goers.
