Veteran actress Farida Jalal returns to the big screen with Dua Qubool, a poignant and emotionally stirring tale that explores the depth of a grandmother’s unconditional love and devotion.

In the film, Jalal portrays a devoted grandmother whose world revolves around her grandson, Dua. When her well-intentioned yet misunderstood “cruel kindness” drives her grandson away from home, she is left clinging to hope. Every day, she raises her hands in dua (prayer), steadfast in her belief that he will one day return.

The narrative poses powerful questions: Will her relentless prayers be answered? Will her estranged grandson come back? Or is there a flaw in her dua that keeps the qubooliyat (acceptance) unfulfilled? Dua Qubool is written, produced, and directed by Manohar ‘Mohabbat’ Iyer, and marks a significant return for Farida Jalal in a role that promises to resonate deeply with audiences.
