Khuda Kay Liye : A Review

From the steaming streets of pakistan to the buzzing boulevards of new york . A story that questions one's faith.
Kudos to shoaib mansoor the director ,writer and producer of this film for showing the world and bringing to life the presence of pakistani films.
The story starts off with a father dissapointed in the lifestyle of his daughter Mariam and wants to get her back to the routes of Islam. Simultaneously thier are two brothers who sing for a proffesion. One of them(Sarmad) in an attempt to find his inner self seeks the help of a maullana .The maullana recruits him a fight for jihad in Afghanistan . The other brother Mansoor however remains with the modern times and joins chicago school of music for his firther studies.
Mariam is tricked into marrying Mansoor by her father who leaves her in a deserted village in Afghanistan .

Mansoor in the U.S. is assaulted for having connections with the 9/11 attack for the sheer fact that he happens to be a muslim.
I would love to break the climax for you . But i guess that would prevent those who haven't seen this film from seeing it.
Will mariam be able to get back to the US ?Will Mansoor be proven not guilty?Will Sarmad actually find his true self?
Watch this film for a extra ordinary experience and a real taste of Pakistan.
