I am not fond of Pakistani movies but sometime out of the industry people make some very good movies which are worth to watch.The Film KHUDA KE LIYE - In the name of GOD is also one of them.The director of this movie is Shoaib Mansoor which is one of the best creative personality in Pakistan in the field of media.
Here is the synopsis of the movie from the original website of KHUDA KE LIYE - In the name of GOD
The film is about the difficult situation in which Pakistanis in particular and the Muslims in general are caught up since 9/11.There is a war going on between the fundamentalist and the liberal Muslims.This situation is creating a drift not only between the Western world and the Muslims but also within the Muslim community.The educated and modern Muslims are in difficult situation because of their approach towards life and their western attire.They are criticized and harassed by the fundamentalist and the other hand the western world sees them as potential suspects of terrorism just because of their Muslim names.This paradox is resulting in great suffering for a forward looking Muslim.
This is the theme of the film " KHUDA KE LIYE" which in English means " IN THE NAME OF GOD".
The interesting thing about the film is how it connects the happenings in the three continents.Unlike the usual Indian and Pakistani films based on romantic sagas, dances and songs, the film is based on some very serious issues, raising a lot of controversial questions engaging the Muslim minds these days.It helps the Muslims youth find a direction.... the right direction, which we all are looking towards.
The cast of this movie is mainly from Pakistan in which Shan and Iman Ali are in lead role, from India Nsseeruddin Shah and first time from Hollywood Austin Marie Sayre.
The songs of this movie is also brilliant specially this song "BUNDEYA"
