Pakistani horror film 'Deemak' dominated the box office over Eid weekend, with a staggering Rs70 million in just its first two days, according to reports.
Directed by Rafay Rashdi and written by Ayesha Muzaffar 'Deemak' explores the volatile relationship between a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law against a backdrop of escalating paranormal disturbances in a family home.
The cast includes Faysal Quraishi, Sonya Hussyn, Samina Peerzada, Javed Sheikh and Bushra Ansari.

Executive producer Syed Murad Ali said, 'I've always had a deep fascination with the horror genre — I've watched countless horror films growing up, and the idea of creating one myself has been with me for years,' he was quoted as saying by Variety.
