Chann Vay (1951)

The Punjabi film Chann Vay (1951) was directed by Noorjahan (supervisor: Syed Shoukat Hussain Rizvi).

Madam Noorjahan returned to Pakistan and started her film career as actress, singer and film director with this hit musical Punjabi film.
This film ran 18 weeks on Regent cinema Lahore which was allotted to Mr. & Mrs Rizvi (as they also got Shori/ShahNoor studio!)
Noorjahan's name was mentioned as director of the film but it was told that her husband Syed Shoukat Hussain Rizvi actually was the real director, but he felt shame to give his name as director to a Punjabi film. Ironically, all of his Urdu films as director in Pakistan were flopped.

The film story

Noor Jehan is orphan and living with her uncle Ghulam Muhammad, who marries her mother for property and now wants Noor Jehan to wed his son, Saleem Raza.

A young man, Santosh, meets her and instantly falls in love, pretending to be her long‑lost brother to stay close.

Noor Jehan secretly marries a visiting doctor, Jahangir, who must leave abroad the next day. When she becomes pregnant, she is exiled on false charges. Santosh protects her until Jahangir returns, learns the truth, and after Santosh sacrifices himself, the couple reunites happily.
