Not until the moment I have watched this movie, I say, this art piece is an epic! They say every story tells something but this one tells everything. Not only I wanted people to hear what I think about the movie but how I have been moved by this. Every single detail, down from the internalization of the characters up to the intensity of the story ended with a sweet blow of its denouema --- it's pu... read more
Description:Theirs was a storybook romance told against the shadow of a great American city, until a series of life-changing events threatened more than just their own happiness. Imagine what happens when a single act from a determined man seeking forgiveness and love lost can do to inspire the hearts and minds of a wounded nation.

In MY NAME IS KHAN, Bollywood superstars Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol Devgan inhabit the most challenging roles of their careers.

Autistinen päähenkilö alussa ilmoittaa haluavansa tavata USA:n presidentin kertoakseen ettei ole terroristi ja sitten takauman kautta selvitellään mikä moiseen on johtanut. On aika pitkälti juuri niin raivostuttavaa tunnevammailua kuin mitä voisi odottaakin.

Not only I wanted people to hear what I think about the movie but how I have been moved by this. Every single detail, down from the internalization of the characters up to the intensity of the story ended with a sweet blow of its denouema --- it's purely splendid!It's a kind of treatment that couldn't be repeated. *Bow* to the writer, production manager, director, editor, and everyone who made this movie possible.Whether it is an inspired story or a product of creativity, it's amazing how one can marry multiple subjects leading into one discourse. Who says science, art, and religion cannot be in one perspective? This movie is a cinematic proo” read more
