Young Pakistani filmmaker Saim Sadiq’s ‘Joyland’ has taken over social media by storm after its screening at the Cannes Film Festival.

Joyland became the first movie to represent the first-ever entry from Pakistan at the film festival. The entire team of ‘Joyland’ including lead actors Alina Khan and Sana Jafri, along with Showbiz veteran Sania Saeed, Sarwat Gilani, Ali Junejo, and Rasti Farooq, were also present at the screening.

Produced by Sarmad Khoosat, Apoorva Guru Charan, and Lauren Mann, it stars Sarwat Gilani, Salman Peerzada, Sania Saeed, Ali Junejo, Alina Khan and Rasti Farooq.  Here’s how Twitterati are celebrating the movie’s featuring at the Cannes.

Bursting with pride and joy! Congratulations team #joyland !! Congratulations Pakistan!

So huge! Congratulations to Saim Sadiq ???? and team ! #Joyland https://t.co/pf47VWGegc

What I loved about this interview is how humble, thoughtful and articulate @SaimSadiq14 is about writing a real dynamic Pakistani story. https://t.co/Qb7PYEmLQk #joyland pic.twitter.com/Elj8nbLiYR

Standing ovation for debuts can be so damn overwhelming … #joyland is a tender heartbreaker of a film … Reminding me of our own #Masaan back in 2015 … pic.twitter.com/LT1ILJzspo

#Joyland representing #Pakistan at #Cannes Would be banned or hard to find a screen for it in Pakistan ? Such ‘Art’films are alway for a minority but cant the Line of creatives making substandard PK Movie after movie at least learn something from the passion & techniques used ?

#Pakistan representation at @Festival_Cannes ???????? #JOYLAND ???????? https://t.co/inFzl9lER2

— Ramsha Khan (@ramshakofficial) May 22, 2022

In some good news: Standing ovation at @Festival_Cannes for our very own #Joyland
Love for the entire team! You’ve made Pakistan proud.

For the Pakistani “film industry”: This is how you make a “film”. Speaks for itself. Stretched dramas padded with Bollywood chaapa aren’t it. https://t.co/OyVlj36VM2

#Joyland The thankful tears of Saim Sadiq who was very emotional after the movie : pic.twitter.com/lBAQEPeSWl

— Rose Harlean (@RoseHarlean) May 23, 2022

So proud of team #joyland. I hope this is a film we get to see on Pakistani screens as well as global OTT platforms. I’ve yet to see #ZindagiTamasha, here’s hoping our censors can get out of the way of Pakistani artists once and for all so the latter can scale new heights. https://t.co/EsYtDQ6iXF

— Maria Amir (@Beentherella) May 23, 2022

#Joyland such a proud moment. Other than all the pictures and videos coming from there, what I am loving the most is that film was reviewed by leading international news portals like The Hollywood Reporter. Such a great achievement which will open doors for many & those involved.
