Original fabricated movie poster from Pakistan’s early 2000s VCD era, created by digitally altering and compositing faces onto bodies sourced from existing film stills and dance shoots. Masquerading as an erotic film advertisement, Haseenon Ka Remand is not a legitimate cinematic release but a visual forgery designed to attract attention at corner rental shops and pirated VCD stalls. The word "Remand" mockingly borrows judicial language to suggest a narrative, but the content it promoted typically consisted of fragmented mujra sequences, dance numbers, or softcore montages. Posters like this reflect the underground aesthetics of early 2000s Pakistani media, shaped by lax censorship and a collapsing cinema economy where glamour, sexuality, and duplicity merged to meet popular demand.

Exhibited in “Spasial Program” at SculptureCenter, New York, June 18 –July 28, 2025. 

Availability: Free pickup on July 29, or worldwide shipping (price excludes shipping).
