There are few movies that have managed to keep the hearts of their audiences for decades, and Hero from 1985, featuring a talented cast including Nadeem Baig, Abdul Karim Baloch, Mumtaz, and Waheed Murad, is one of them. This romantic adventure film revolves around the story of a young man trying to find his place in the world, love, and his identity.

The film begins with Waheed Murad, who plays the lead role, as a young man named Ali who lives in a small village in Pakistan. He is a carefree and vibrant individual who enjoys singing and dancing with his friends despite his family's desolate living conditions. Unlike his older siblings who have settled for a life of minimal success and prosperity in their hometown, Ali has a burning desire to pursue his dreams of becoming a successful singer and musician.

One day, Ali notices the beautiful and enchanting Saba (Mumtaz) on a train, and instantly falls in love with her. He is mesmerized by her beauty and charm and decides to follow her to the city. After a few chance encounters, the two cross paths, and Ali musters the courage to talk to Saba, revealing his feelings for her. However, his confession is met with reluctance as Saba has always dreamed of marrying a wealthy man who could take care of her needs and wants.

Undeterred in his quest to win Saba's heart, Ali continues to pursue her, even though it means he must overcome multiple obstacles. He faces opposition from Saba's family, who do not approve of him, and is faced with various ups and downs in his music career. Despite the odds stacked against him, Ali remains resolute and continues to strive for success, believing that he can win Saba's love if he is successful.

One day, Ali finally gets his break in the music industry and becomes a popular and sought-after singer. He takes advantage of his newfound fame to try and win Saba's affection. However, he soon realizes that his fame and success have blinded him to the true nature of his relationship with Saba. He begins to understand that love cannot be bought or won through material possessions or fame. He learns the importance of being true to oneself and being honest about one's feelings.

In Hero, Abdul Karim Baloch plays Saba's brother, Ali's friend, and love rival. He adds a layer of tension to the story as he is presented as the ideal man for Saba, who has the wealth and security that Ali desires. The addition of Baloch's character also serves to highlight the societal expectations and pressure that exists concerning marriage.

The movie has a strong focus on the importance of chasing one's dreams and passions, and the power of true love in opposition to wealth and status. It also touches on the realities of societal pressures and expectations and the impact they can have on individuals' lives.

The film features strong performances by its cast, with Waheed Murad giving a standout performance as Ali. His energy and enthusiasm are infectious, drawing the audience in and making them root for his character's success. Mumtaz, who plays Saba, is also excellent, bringing a sense of warmth to her character and making her an appealing romantic partner for Ali. Nadeem Baig and Abdul Karim Baloch round out the cast with solid support performances.

Overall, Hero presents an engaging and heartwarming story that holds up well even decades after its release. The film's exploration of love, dreams, societal pressures, and the pursuit of happiness is something that resonates with audiences of all generations. The movie's musical compositions and stunning visuals add to its overall appeal, making it a classic that will continue to charm audiences for many years to come.
