Re: Do indian dramas have ANY Muslim character?
i agree that most indian films picturize muslims in a negative role. THOUGH there is also the token muslim who is chacha jee and really good too.
My point is why don't the dramas have one? It's wierd. if 10% of India is muslim...there isn't even one on the shows...i think the muslims out number the sikhs but there are tons of sikhs on the shows.
I do think it makes a difference what the market is for either genere...and perhaps that's why the dramas don't have characters...but don't know.
there was one serial some 7 yrs ago, it was called Heena and it starred Simone Singh, i remember all the aunties watching it religiously.. and all the characters were muslim. i don't know abt tons of sikhs on the shows.. but then i don't watch any... so which shows are these?
why don't these dramas have muslim or christian characters? i don't know that it matters, unless religion is a prevalent theme in the drama.
