‘Smart Rabbit Momo: The Big Chase’ in Urdu hits Pakistani cinemas tomorrow

ISLAMABAD: The 3D animated feature film, Smart Rabbit Momo: The Big Chase — produced by Turkey’s TRT and 9D Medya — is set to be released in cinemas across Pakistan on July 25 with Urdu dubbing, under a collaboration with Hum Network.

The film — based on the beloved TRT Çocuk TV series, Smart Rabbit Momo — follows the adventurous journey of a clever young rabbit, Momo, who sets out on a high-stakes rescue mission to save her kidnapped friend Timtim.

The story transitions from a peaceful forest to a chaotic urban sprawl, blending action and heartwarming friendship.

Dubbed in Urdu for Pakistani audiences, the film features the voice talents of actors Faisal Quraishi, Hira Mani, and Mani, who lend life to the characters for the first time.

Aimed primarily at children, the film also carries emotional depth and humour that appeal to adult audiences.

Smart Rabbit Momo: The Big Chase was directed by 25-year-old Mahmut Hasan and written by Gülebru Turna with a screenplay by Serap Özgür. Despite the devastating 2023 earthquake in Kahramanmaraş, where the film was produced, the team persevered to complete the film in four years, turning it into a symbol of resilience.
