First trailer of 'Inspector Jamshed: The Secret Parchment' unveiled

The movie is expected to arrive in cinemas in 2027. The plot revolves around Jamshed’s investigation into a string of murders linked to a mysterious parchment. The trailer teases an action-packed mystery featuring car chases, gun battles and a secretive organisation, alongside a more personal family storyline.

The story also explores tensions within Jamshed’s family after his daughter is kidnapped by Behzaad, putting his relationship with his wife, Shakeela, under severe strain. Anoushay Abbasi plays Shakeela, while veteran actor Asif Raza Mir appears as Jamshed’s close friend Khan Rehman.

Mir is also associated with the project as a co-producer. Jamshed’s three children — Mehmood, Farooq and Farzana — are portrayed by Ravel Imran, along with siblings Ahmed and Aline Harkous. The production was filmed in Abu Dhabi, with several sequences shot at prominent locations including the Louvre Abu Dhabi and the surrounding desert landscape.

The international setting gives the Pakistani production a distinctly expansive cinematic feel. The trailer’s release has also drawn reactions from several Pakistani celebrities. Mahira Khan, Sarwat Gilani, Shaista Lodhi, Yasir Hussain and Maya Ali were among those who expressed their support and enthusiasm for the project on social media.

With filming completed and a 2027 theatrical release planned, Inspector Jamshed: The Secret Parchment seeks to revive a much-loved literary character for longtime readers while introducing Inspector Jamshed and his world to a younger generation. Blending mystery, action and family drama with an international visual setting, the film is shaping up as an eagerly anticipated Pakistani release for 2027.
