Waqt Ki Pukar
Journalist exposes terrorist's plot using pigeon bombs. His lover, a mole, warns him. Ada navigates morality. Ultimately, forces thwart terrorist's attempt to instigate panic. The protagonist, Amin (Tahir Ali Khan), begins a series of articles to expose the forces behind ongoing terrorist attacks. His ladylove Anjuman, portrayed by Zeba, ends up working for Seth Ibrahim Hong Kong Wala, played by the impeccable Kamal Irani. Famous TV actor Mahmood Ali was one hand of Seth saheb, while the 'other' hand, Ada shuttled between the camps of good and evil. The opening credits seem like a montage of James Bond films. One could see a sniper killing from the top floor, a spy taking pictures of secret installations, a revolving door leading to a secret den and above all, the antagonist is seen transmitting messages to the enemy. There were pigeons used in the film for carrying capsule bombs, there were deaths by secret potions. Furthermore, bugging devices and sophisticated system(s) were shown in the film as well. One mustn't forget the secret mini-transmitter installed in a shoe, provided by the 'security agencies'. The spy thriller, Waqt Ki Pukar remains a gripping film throughout. The climax scene opens with a flock of pigeons carrying capsule bombs attached to their bodies spreading over the city of Lahore. Controlled by Ibrahim Hong Kong Wala (Kamal Irani) from his secret lair, the purpose is to create panic in the city, which would lead to war. However, a falcon (inspired by Allama Iqbal's Shaheen) arrives, forcing the birds to retreat. The 'hero' is alerted about the birds by a female informant, Anjuman (Zeba), to an editor of a newspaper, Amin (Tahir Ali Khan), via a secret transmitter hidden in a shoe. - This is the climax to Saeed Fazli's film Waqt Ki Pukar, wherein this climax idea had belonged to one of the late senior Fazli's, Syed Wadood Fazli. He helped in building a proper climax. Over two days and hours of discussions he had given three astonishing and entirely original ideas to which Saeed had then rewrote them into the script. —Fazli
