Chambaili is the first political drama in the history of Pakistani cinema, exploring the subject of political corruption.
At its release, the film surpassed Bollywood's Ashaqui 2 and Hollywood's Oblivion at the Pakistani box office. It was discussed in the national media, and has been praised for its contribution to democracy in Pakistan. Chambaili has been credited with galvanizing non-voters and youth to vote in the 2013 Pakistani general elections, which had a large turnout. Political parties in the country played songs from its soundtrack during campaign rallies, as young people resonated with the film and its music as part of increased social and political activism.
Chambaili is the first digital Pakistani film. It has the largest soundtrack in Pakistani film history: 13 songs, of which four have charted. The film has the most music videos of any Pakistani film (eight). An intersection in the Railways Colony in Lahore was named "Chambaili Chowk" after part of the film was shot in the workers colony; it is the first film in the world to have an intersection named for it.
