I’ts honestly hilarious that a Pakistani movie only seems to have white characters.
The description of jinn as being made of smokeless fire along with some being good and others bad, are exactly the Quranic descriptions of them, so its nice seeing some of the creator’s culture make its way to the film.
The disputed territories I imagine are a reference to Jammu and Kashmir. One of the characters called the dispute “idiocy”, interesting.

Does anyone know if this will be released to the US/US theaters?

If you’re gonna crib character design style, background setting style, mechanical design style, and antiwar storylines from anime, Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli is a great place to start.
But honestly that looks really good!
I would be surprised if there wasn’t at least a few Japanese animators in some key positions.
There weren’t any that I could see in the video credits, but I’d have to read the full credits.
