Sharmeen also responded to this preposterous claim on twitter citing how a documentary based on real life events can be a copy of a fiction work?

Pakistani Twitterati took this claim to next level by trolling Syed Noor on twitter with equally absurd movie names that could have been made by the Lollywood director to impress Oscar winner Sharmeen Obaid Chinoy. Here are some of the hilarious examples;
