Abstract
The manipulation of media after September 11, terrorist attacks on the World Trade center in New York Washington, has a dramatic effect in the world history. Hollywood and Bollywood cinema are the two important film industries that remained entre for projecting the attack in its multiple movies depictions across the world. Both the cinemas soon after the attack started depicting/stereotyping Islam and Muslims through its film projections. The terror of 9/11 spectacles took over live global media for days to becoming an emblematic in media history vis-à-vis also became a site of shock, death and destabilization. The events of 9/11 marked the onset of a new phase in media world, thereby putting the Muslims and Islam in its stereotypical frame. In the films of Hollywood/Bollywood cinema the perception of Muslims and Islam has gotten even more distorted than it already had. As a result the perception of Islam has reduced to a point where it has been described as a threat to the entire world. A consistent stereotyped association with violence, terrorism, fundamentalism and extremism was labeled with Islamic culture. The paper aims to explore the distorted image of Muslims and Islam in Hollywood/Bollywood cinema after 9/11 movies, thereby establishing the point of view that how both cinemas are projecting Muslims and Islam as ‘Other’.
