Akbar Hamid, is here! He does it all. He is a business man, producer, and actor! Wait til you see "Poreles!" It is a story about a queer Muslim beauty founder named Akram, whose brand is finally poised for its big break—until an allergic reaction leaves his face covered in a rash just as a major pitch looms. As everything he's worked for hangs in the balance, Akram must navigate chaos, family, and the pressure to stay flawless. Co-written by Harris Doran and Fawzia Mirza, Poreless is a sharp, heartfelt comedy about identity, ambition, and the messiness behind the glow. Produced by Akbar Hamid & Rabia Sultana. The film debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival!
