Salam Alaik...
Watched the movie, twice. Having torrent-downloaded it for only 2 days, I was very eager to know why this movie had it so much among movie-fans around the world. Low-budget, simple plotted movie, that could move your heart, I suppose.
The story told about two brothers and a female counterpart, being together in the cause of massacre of Muslim village in an unknown part of Mumbai, India. Can't help noticing that the said charachters are all muslims, by name, although the female one might be confused between being a Muslimat or else.
It shows, how confused some Muslims might be. For example, Salim, the elder brother, was shown performing prayer (although I am a bit confused about the Sujud he performed) and ask for repentance. This happen while he is working with long-time gangsters, involves killing people and prostitution. He was also found to say 'God is Great' at the end of his life on the tip of his betrayed colleagues.
Jamal, his younger brother whose also the hero of this movie, also being found in a very, very deep confusion in his own. He was searching for this Latika, the love of his life, and do everything in order to get her.
Latika, on the other hand, being missing many times in the plot, caught herself being manipulated by corrupted man and disturbed society. She was also not living a decent life a woman should.
All in all, the movie shown that, there's a world of confusion among Muslims on the earth. While they are suppose to be the caliph on this earth, they were attacked and end up being manipulated by corrupted world, brought far from the truth religion that seems to be called 'so-yesterday' by people with narrow-mind.
I was also made thinking, what differences the people depicted in the story had between Muslims in Malaysia? The question is answerable if you had sometime using your eyes, ears and those bloody oxygenated brain you had...
