If I ever become a film producer, the first thing that I'll do is to change the name of old Pakistanis movies and will give them an educational touch:
'dil ik aaina' to 'dil ik library'
'ik teray liye' to 'ik kitaab kay liye'
'main ik din lot kay aaoon ga' to 'main ik din kitabain laoon ga'
'mohabbat zindagi hay' to 'kitab zindagi hay'
'koi tujh sa kahan' to 'hay ye library kahan'
and so on...
In my production, the main character of the story will always be a librarian who is highly obsessed with the library. This person loves arranging events for adults and children to come to the library and volunteer in organizing it. He/she is always busy from the beginning till end in motivating his/her love towards reading. The villain will be the character who is always against books and reading (like our political parties and ninety nine percent of celebrities) and always plans to destroy the libraries. Every good character in the movie carries a book in his/her hand and for a minute discusses the theme of the book with a happy face. The cook in the movie has a recipe book, the gardener has around ten to twenty books about planting in his small room, the driver keeps in his pocket the book about traffic signs and a road map, the maid reads a book about cleaning stuff, etc. The police even carry a small book that explains the manners of arresting bad people.
Ending could be different like they may or may not find each other but the main character does not give up on his/her book-mania. At the end, evil characters are jailed only for a month and their suggested punishment is to "read a book a day, keep the evil away"....if they succeed in finishing thirty books a month, they are released as an honorable citizen otherwise the same punishment is extended for another month.
AND THAT WOULD BE A NEVER ENDING STORY!
