Review of the movie: 

"Reluctant Fundamentalism"

 

               This is also a Post Colonial movie and related to the question of identity.

               This is 2012 political thriller drama film based on 2007 novel, 'The Reluctant Fundamentalism' by Mohsin Hamid, Movie id directed by Mira Nair, and screen play by William Wheeler, staring by Riz Ahemedad and Kate Hudson in lead role. This movie impact of the AI Queda attack on one Pakistani man and his treatment by Americans in reaction to them.

                This movie is about a one man Changez Khan, a Pakistani man who goes to America for job and to make his good future. He easily mixed up with the environment and people of America. Everything was well going but his life changed after the attack of 9/11 on America. American people starting to doubt on him because he comes from Pakistan. He becomes symbol of terror for Americans. He faces many adversity and finally he commit professional suicide and came back to Pakistan. 

                After the attack of 9/11 all Americans think that Changez Khan is a terrorist coming from pakistan and doing work for that. His friends and his boss also do bed behaviour with Changez, and he also loss his job. His girlfriend also hate him just for he was muslim comes from Pakistan. He faces hatred from the Americans. So, with the identity of Muslim from Pakistan he faces lots of problems in America.

               After faces that kind of hatred from Americans, he decided to live in Pakistan. In the University he taught the students as a proffeser, and the students give him respect also, so there is not any identity problemsin the Pakistan.

            So, this film shows after effects of 9/11 attack also. Other countries people always remain other, through they believe it theirs. Native people will hate them. This is good film to getting idea of American's treatment with Muslims and their view point towards Muslims. It is not only Muslim Community but all orient hated by white country. So, this is good film for Post Colonial studies.

  Thank you....
