I was invited to be part of the Selection Committee of GiFF x NAPA – the only film festival held in Karachi, Pakistan in 2022. This was a pioneering event of its own kind, as there are no prestigious film festivals that take place in Karachi, or in Pakistan for that matter (apart from a couple of student film fests at universities). Nevertheless, I was honored to select and curate films submitted from across the globe to be showcased in a ceremony held on September 24 to 25, 2022 at the Zia Mohyeddin Auditorium, NAPA, Karachi.

I was invited to teach an intensive course on the art and craft of Screenwriting at Pakistan’s most prestigious performing arts academy – the National Academy of Performing Arts (NAPA). The course was part of NAPA’s Continuing Education program and lasted for three months starting from June 17 till September 16, 2022.

The promotion media campaign of this pioneering course was touted to be the first masterclass of its kind in Pakistan’s top academy of arts, itself was an honor for me.
