Curiosidades

Chanway or Chan Wey is a 1951 Pakistani Punjabi-language film directed Noor Jehan with the supervision of Shaukat Hussain Rizvi.

Production

After migrating from India, Shaukat Hussain Rizvi established his Shahnoor Studios and decided to produce a film. He was advised to produce film in Punjabi because at that time Punjabi films such as Pheray (1949) and Laraay (1950) were commercially successful rather than Urdu films. So, he directed and produced Chan Wey and his spouse Noor Jehan was credited as the director because he himself did not know Punjabi.

The film also marked Noor Jehan's return to the screen since her last film Jugnu (1947), also directed by Rizvi and had music composed by Nizami.
