Khuda Ke Liye has been one hell of an eye opener. It provides us an unbiased view into the minds of Muslims, both extremists and the common progressive man.
The movie has various threads running, showcase different aspects of Muslim life. I was shocked by the treatment meted out to a Pakistani Muslim in the US, where he is tortured without proof! On the other hand, I was also shocked by a Muslim father who willingly forces his daughter to marry her own first cousin in the name of religion and his pride.
The music from the movie is haunting, and the acting is fairly good all around. The director, story writer and the cast of the movie make a strong case for better interpretation of Islam and banning those who provide an extremist interpretation in the name of Religion.
Worth a watch!

Yes this is a brilliant movie. I just hope you watched it with sub titles as there was quite a lot of hi funda Urdu that never got past my ears!! Talking @ that father marrying off his daughter, the hypocrite was going around with a white woman.

.. about the Urdu, but I could understand it and didn’t use the subtitles
As for the father, yes! Even the white woman points it out as well as his own brother, but he is such an ass that he still wants it that way!
