As per media reports preparations are underway to release Iranian films in cinemas too. Relevant agreement among Iranian film producers and Pakistani film distributors has been reached, after which Iranian films will be released in cinemas with Urdu dubbing.

It is too early to comment what sort of reception Iranian or Turkish films will receive. Historical stats show that Pakistani cine-goers mostly like Indian styled masala films. In regional Pashto/Punjabi cinema, Maulat Jutt styled action films are mostly successful. Apart from few exceptions, mostly Indian style films are the successful one in cinema.
