CricketGirl Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 i dont think its about whether a role is muslim or hindu or whatever i suppose actors take on role depending on what the character is personality wise, ok granted that being muslim may be part of that but i dont think that entirely is the reason for taking on a role Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooda Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Hmm. I guess muslim roles in films are a bit more complex because of the nature of the films theyre in Cheesy romatic films are simpler and dont seem to have muslims in the leads often- for whatever reason But roles where muslims are the main character(s) are about- terrorism or religious issues which are quite topical these days and which are naturally more complex due to the demands of the character. Lots of films along those lines out/coming out- My Name is Khan as you mentioned; also Kurbaan with Saif and Kareena; New York- is N N Mukesh a muslim in that? I thought Hrithiks Portrayal of a militant in Mission K was pretty good. Fiza OTOH was poor, too simplistic. Havent seen J.Akbar, but I think with Hrit the fact that he has done a few is coincidence In Rang de Basanti the guy who plays a mulsim does a pretty good job.

Sooda Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Well, not romance per se. Its pre/extra marital romance that is. Somehow I dont think thats the reason why they dont have muslims in those kinda roles. :P I forgot Aamir Khan in Fanaa- he does a good job in that film.

No I do not. For starters you have totally missed the fact that for every 10 Muslim male roles you would be hard pressed to find a single female role. The reasons are rather obvious - status of female in Muslim society and also the sheer hungama that follows anytime a Muslim female role has even a bit of controversy(and this controvery can range from wearing skirts to drinking, forget big contentious topics). As for Hrithik for every role of his you can find a corresponding Hindu role as well. For a Jodha Akbar you have an Ashoka for example. You obviously can not compare with an Islamic terrorist role because simply there has not been many Hindu terrorists really. xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooda Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 The might do, because it happens. Dosent change the fact that it is, as you quite rightly say, haram in real life. No I do not. For starters you have totally missed the fact that for every 10 Muslim male roles you would be hard pressed to find a single female role. The reasons are rather obvious - status of female in Muslim society and also the sheer hungama that follows anytime a Muslim female role has even a bit of controversy xxx How do you mean? Films about 'muslims', or with muslims in them as the primary focus be it re: terrorism in Kashmir or whatever, have actresses playing muslims in them too. :hmmm: Unless you mean a muslim woman as the main lead type. Having ANY woman is rare in that respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
