Many films in recent times have tried to explore the issue of fundamentalism and terrorism in different types of stories. While Mumbai Meri Jaan was based on the 2006 Mumbai train blasts, Mission Istanbul and Hijack revolved around the real-life IC-814 hijack incident. Many say that the films which attempt to explore terror themes, exploit the Muslim stereotype in a negative manner. Do they? Or do they only contribute to the existing prejudice in our society?
