My Name is Khan

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 reeling from a love lost, can do to inspire the hearts and minds of a wounded nation.

Rizvan Khan is an honorable Muslim man from India, living with Asperger’s Syndrome, who falls unconditionally for the beautiful Mandira, a Hindu single mother living out her version of a dream of success. Yet, when an unspeakable act of cowardice tears their ersatz family apart, Khan selflessly embarks on a powerful and complex journey through contemporary America.

He innocently becomes that most unlikely act of defiance: One of peace and compassion. He provides a sobering reality that touches the lives of every person he crosses. In the name of the woman he loves, a curious stranger will introduce himself to the world simply by saying, “my name is Khan, and I am not a terrorist.”
