Rizvan Khan (Shah Rukh Khan) is a devout Muslim. He suffered from Asperger's syndrome since childhood. After his mother died, he immigrated to San Francisco with his younger brother to live in the United States. As a cosmetics salesman, Rizvan meets single mother Mandira Khan (played by Kajol) and forms a happy family with Mandira and her son Sameer. After the 9.11 terrorist attacks, the American people began to discriminate against and exclude Muslims. The hair salon where Mandira worked was forced to close, and Sameer was bullied by other classmates because of his father's surname Khan, and was eventually beaten to death on the school field. Mandira blamed it all on Rizvan's surname and took out all her grief and anger on Rizvan. Mandira said she would not see him again until Rizvan met the president of the United States and told him that Khan's last name had nothing to do with terrorists. Since then, Rizvan has embarked on a journey, in order to meet the president, in order to make up for this broken relationship with Mandira...
Watching this movie was a few years ago, and I saw this name in the list of high-scoring movies recommended by others. An unremarkable movie, mainly when I saw Shah Rukh Khan who played Ashoka, and the interest came all of a sudden. At that time, I really thought that Shah Rukh Khan was the best actor in Bollywood, and he acted like what, and the movie My Name Is Khan even cried once after watching it. Even years later, when I see the dialogue in the movie again, I still have mixed feelings.
No matter where you are, it is extremely difficult for an ordinary person to see the head of state. This kind of thinking is so natural for ordinary people.
After 9.11, when a Muslim wants to meet the President of the United States, the first thing that comes to mind is the potential danger.
However, Rizvan, who was born with a disability, no matter how impossible and unrealistic it is, he worked tirelessly to meet the President and tell the President that he was not a terrorist.
I don't want to say how positive and positive the theme of the film is, nor do I support the idea that everyone has to see the head of state, but I just think that sometimes many things that people take for granted become restrictions on people's actions. The rules and regulations of the world, and outside these rules and regulations, there may be a hole in the world.
"The question over here is, not why he's trying to meet the President. The question is, what's wrong in an ordinary citizen wanting to meet the President of his country? Or is it just wrong for a Muslim man to even try?"— —My Name Is Khan, 2010
My Name Is Khan can be regarded as a happy ending. Although Sameer became the victim of discrimination and strife, and Rizvan and Mandira also experienced a lot of hardships, Rizvan used his fraternity to complete his goal, with His never-give-up spirit inspired many Muslims to once again hold their heads up and face others.
"Sam... Our Khan has managed to achieve, with his love and humanity, what my hatred could never achieve. My anger threw us apart. But today his love has brought us together in a way where we remember you with renewed hope. "—My Name Is Khan, 2010
