Produced by Geo Films and directed by Rafay Rashdi, Deemak has become the country highest-grossing horror movie, earning Rs70 million in just two days during Eid. But is it just jump scares, or does it have a deeper story? Let’s break it down.
Deemak has outperformed all expectations, proving that Pakistani audiences love horror. Here a quick look at its earnings:
Metric | Details |
Opening Day | Rs35 million |
2-Day Total | Rs70 million (biggest horror opener) |
Theatres | Nationwide (Mandviwala Entertainment) |
Competition | Beat Love Guru (Eid release) |
This success puts Deemak ahead of past horror films like Zibahkhana (2007) and Aksbandh (2016).
The film follows a family haunted by supernatural forces—but with a twist. Instead of relying only on ghosts, it explores family conflicts, hidden trauma, and psychological fear.
The film success isn’t just due to scares—its powerful acting makes it unforgettable.
Why Samina Pirzada Stole the Show?
Despite being bedridden for most of the film, her expressions and voice create the real horror. Critics call it her career-best performance.
Deemak has split viewers—some praise its emotional depth, while others criticize its CGI ghosts.

Pakistan has few horror films, but Deemak stands out:
Movie | Year | Type | Success |
Zibahkhana | 2007 | Slasher Horror | Cult Hit |
Aksbandh | 2016 | Found-Footage | Moderate |
Deemak | 2024 | Psychological | Blockbuster |
Unlike past films, Deemak focuses on emotional horror rather than cheap scares.
Rafay Rashdi wanted a horror film rooted in Pakistani culture. In interviews, he said:
“Real horror isn’t about ghosts—it’s about family secrets and pain.”
He also admitted budget limits affected CGI quality but defended the film strong storytelling.
With its success, Deemak proves:
Horror sells if done right.
Strong scripts matter more than big budgets.
Pakistani audiences want fresh genres.
A: Partly. It’s inspired by real events in Balochistan but fictionalized.
A: Samina Pirzada performance is being called legendary.
A: Yes! It’s rated for adults due to intense scenes.
A: If box office numbers stay strong, a sequel is likely.
Watch if you like: Psychological horror, family dramas, strong acting.

Deemak isn’t perfect, but it’s a big step forward for Pakistani horror. If you enjoy films with deep stories and chills, this is a must-watch!
What’s Next?
With Deemak success, expect more horror films from Pakistan. Will the next one be even scarier? Only time will tell!
