My Name is Khan

I know some of you out there don’t really consider Bollywood movies as something to be expected every weekend at the cinema, but this particular movie has been receiving quite the buzz to make me curious about it. Critics have mixed reviews about this movie and it has broken box office records during its opening weekend. Getting curious as well? You can check out the trailer here. The trailer at first glance is pretty moving, and my favorite part is when the main character said “My name is Khan and I’m not a terrorist”.

The cast supporting this movie includes Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol. Both of them are well-known for their collaboration in lots of movies and they are reunited once again in this movie. The movie dwells in the idea about an Indian family, a Muslim family, living in The United States, with the last name of Khan who experienced a lot of changes in their life after the 9/11 incidents. It shows the discrimination, the prejudice, the change in how people treat them and look at them. These changes then set a course for the main character to a journey where he wants to meet the president of The United States to say that his name is Khan and he is not a terrorist. I really look forward to watching this one as I think it is interesting to see how The United States is from the eye of other country. Besides, this kind of theme is rare and usually avoided because some people think that it bears a sensitive issue. If you happen to have watched the movie please share your thoughts here. What do you personally think about it? I will write the review about the movie here as soon as I watch it, but until then, I hope this piece of preview will make do. Ferry, signing off!
