Lollywood

Lollywood (in Punjabi, Urdu: لالی وُڈ‎ lâli vuḍ) is the Urdu and Punjabi-language film industry of Pakistani cinema, based in Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan.[1] Since 1929, Lahore has been the center of Pakistani cinema, producing films in both languages. Since 2007, however, Karachi has largely overtaken Lahore in Urdu film productions. The word "Lollywood" was coined in the summer of 1989 in Glamour magazine as a portmanteau of "Lahore" and "Hollywood", published from Karachi, by gossip columnist Saleem Nasir.

Not to be confused with Cinema of Pakistan.
