violence
There are infrequent mild scenes of brawling and fighting arising from religious and cultural intolerance, with no clear sight of blows. A stylised animated sequence shows a man swinging a sword towards the neck of a knife-wielding attacker as the scene cuts away, implying off-screen decapitation.
language
Bad language includes ‘prick’, ‘bitch’, ‘shit’, ‘bloody’, ‘ass’, ‘bugger’, ‘bastard’, ‘harami’, 'halka bevarsi' ‘crap’, ‘frigging’, ‘freaking’, ‘hell’, ‘goddamnit’, ‘lunatic’ and ‘moron’.
sex
Hindu characters make discriminatory comments about a young Muslim man, accusing him of trying to seduce local women; another man is called a ‘pimp’ for facilitating a friendship between the Muslim student and a female classmate.
discrimination
A Muslim student at a Hindu college is regarded with suspicion and derision by classmates, who refer to him as ‘the Mauzi’ and make fun of his name. In one scene a group of students surround him in a threatening manner and accuse him of joining the college with the sole intention of ‘picking up’ Hindu women. An animated sequence illustrating ignorance of Muslim culture features stereotypical depictions of Muslims, including a demonic-looking warlord. The film carries a clear message encouraging religious and cultural tolerance. There are also brief references to caste discrimination, which is clearly criticised, as well as comic scenes in which students refer to one of their classmates as ‘fatso’.
