Karan Johar’s ‘MNIK’ starring SRK is truly a movie by an Indian made for the world.

After conquering hearts at other places, the movie has touched a chord with the Egyptian cine lovers, who continue to throng theatres even two months after its release.

The film, which talks about the `Islamophobia` that gripped the US after 9/11, made a record one million Egyptian pounds in the first four weeks of its release.

The Karan Johar directed film, which was distributed in Egypt by United Motion Pictures, has become a hit among public as well as critics.

The distribution head Antoine Zind says it has been decades since he took the risk with showing an Indian movie in Egyptian theatres but `My Name Is Khan` has changed his perception about Indian cinema.

Famous analyst Muhammad al-Kurdusi is one of the strongest supporters of the movie.

"This is no ordinary movie. This movie reflects what we, as Muslims, learnt in primary school. The hero is no ordinary hero. He is more like a new prophet of his time but are we true Muslims to believe in him?" al-Kurdusi said.

It seems after Big B, SRK is a favorite amongst the Egyptians. Amitabh in his hey days enjoyed the same amount of popularity as compared to the President of Egypt.

Great Going SRK!
