Maula Jatt (Punjabi: مَولا جٹ), is a 1979 Pakistani Punjabi-language action, musical film directed by Yunus Malik and produced by Sarwar Bhatti.

Its success set the trend of action films being popular in Pakistan and cemented Sultan Rahi as Lollywood's main hero.

The film was inspired by Ahmed Nadeem Qasmi's short story "Gandasa" which described the culture of Gujranwala's rural areas.

An unofficial sequel titled Maula Jatt in London, also directed by Yunus Malik, was released in 1981.

A member of the Natt clan, Maakha, chases a girl, who is given protection by Maula's Bhabi Daani.

Maula immediately throws away his Gandasa and makes an impassioned plea to the audience to choose seeking justice over revenge.

Film Maula Jatt was commercially successful in the 1980s and celebrated its Diamond Jubilee at the cinemas and the box office.
