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 fundamentalists and the liberal Muslims. The 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 a difficult situation because of their approach towards life and their Western attire. They are criticised and harassed by the fundamentalists, and on 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 Kay Liye. The interesting thing about the film is how it connects the happenings in the three continents. |
