Movie Review :- The Reluctant Fundamental

 The Reluctant fundamental



        On 9th September 2018, we had film screening of the two films first was " Midnight's  children (novel written by Salman Rushdie) directed by deepa mehta and second was The Reluctant Fundamentalist " ( A novel written by Mohsin Hamid)  directed by Mira Nair's Movie "The Reluctant fundamentalist " which is released in 2012 is also based on this novel.




      Changez leading main role in this movie. This movie reflects relationship between Pakistan and America.The story is about the young man changez Khan who attracted to American business culture. He was an intellectual and respected person in American wall street business company. There are two meanings of fundamentals have been used, first in business and another is in terrorism.

      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 changez after the attack of 9/11/ on America. American people staring 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 Loos his job. His girlfriend also hate him  just for the 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 American.

     After faces that kind of  hatred form Americans, he decided to live in Pakistan in the university he taught the students as a professor and the students give him respect also, so there is not any identity problem sin the Pakistan.

       So, this film shows after effects of 9/11/ attack also countries people always remain other. Through they believe in theirs. Native people will hate them. This is good film to getting idea of Americans treatment with Muslim's And their view point towards muslims. It is not only Muslim community but all orient hatred by white country. So, this is good film for post colonial studies.

    Thank you...
