The
film has been inspired by the suicide bombings in
London of July 7, 2005, in which four British Muslims
killed themselves and 52 other innocent people in
London. Those injured totalled to about 700. The film
unfolds the turmoil in the life of Tariq Ali (Naseeruddin
Shah), a Muslim police officer at Scotland Yard.
Commander Ali, born in Lahore, and married to an
English woman, is tasked to investigate the police
shooting of a suspected Muslim terrorist in the London
Underground. Distrusted by both his superiors and his
fellow Muslims, he finds his inquiry hampered from all
sides. When evidence surfaces pointing to the slain
man’s innocence, as well as the existence of a
terrorist cell operating in his own backyard, Tariq
must face the realisation that sometimes, the right
decision is the hardest one to make.
