Film review : The Reluctant Fundamentalist




 we have seen this movie. 'The Reluctant Fundamentalist' novel written by Mohsin Hamid and directed by Mira Nair. It is about attack of 9/11, how it changes opinion towards the man, who are relatedly innocent.  It was the story of changez khan. He loved America. Once In America Al Queda attack happened. They  suspected that  Pakistan had do that attacked. Because he was Muslim so police and everyone treated him very badly. So it's shows because he was Muslim people consider him as terrorist.

 Changez Khan is main suspect of the entire fiction. It is a frame narration, 'story within story'. Changez goes to America for doing job after completing his study. Everything was very nice until the attack, he got promotion, everyone was  his friend, he had one girlfriend also, it seems like everything was so good, but after attack of 9/11 everything was charged. People were doubted on him. Even his girlfriend's behaviour was also changed. Though people doubt on his dignity. People looked him as not individual person but as Pakistani.


 At the last Bobby who was interviewe, and the agent of American agency, who accidentally killed one Pakistani who friend of Changez. It shows how Americans killed minutely anyone for their purpose.

So, movie represents that how Americans treated Muslims, American known for giving opportunity to others, also known as Salad Bowl, but here we need to think that, it actually right or not. In 'New York', which directed by Kabir Khan, it has same aspects of like this movie. John Abraham, played role of Muslim and suffering same kind of harrassment.  It has many points of postcolonial study.







Thank you....
