Khuda Ke Liye (In The Name Of God) (Avg Rating 3.25)

Synopsis

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. This situation is creating a drift not only between the western world and the Muslims but also within the Muslims Community. The Educated and Modern Muslims Are in a difficult situation because of their approach towards life and their western attire. They are criticized and harassed by the Fundamentalists and on the other hand the western world sees them as potential suspects of terrorism just because of their Muslims names.

This Paradox is resulting in great shuddering for a forward looking Muslims. This is the theme of the film "Khuda Kay 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. This film is based on some very serious issues, raising a lot of controversial questions engaging the Muslims minds these days. It helps the Muslims youth find a direction... the right direction, which we all are looking towards.
