Parey Hut Love (transl. Stay Away, Love) is a 2019 Pakistani romantic comedy film directed by Asim Raza and penned by Imran Aslam. The narrative follows Sheheryar (played by Sheheryar Munawar), a young, free-spirited aspiring actor who is afraid of commitment, and Saniya (portrayed by Maya Ali), a determined woman. Their romance blossoms through a series of serendipitous encounters at various weddings of friends and family. The film features notable performances from Nadeem Baig, Ahmed Ali Butt, Zara Noor Abbas, and Shahbaz Shigri, with special appearances by Mahira Khan and Fawad Khan, along with cameos from Meera, Sonya Jehan, and Ahmed Ali Akbar.
The film's music is composed by Azaan Sami Khan, while the cinematography is handled by Serkan Güler and Salman Razzaq. Hina Farooqui serves as the production designer, Saqib Hayat is the art director, and styling is done by Haani Sharique. Parey Hut Love draws loose inspiration from the 1994 British film Four Weddings and a Funeral. It was released internationally on 08 August 2019, and in Pakistan on Eid al-Adha, 12 August 2019, under the banner of The Vision Factory Films, distributed by ARY Films, Salman Iqbal Films, and B4U Motion Pictures.
