The three Khans that rule Bollywood are Shah Rukh Khan, alias the King Khan; Amir Khan, alias Mr. Perfection; and Salman Khan, alias Tiger Khan.
A lot is said and written about the narrow Hindu mentality, but there is little truth in this assertion. India does not only have the biggest film industry in the world, but also the largest democracy as well. India is by and large a secular society, and not a caste and class ridden one, despite what many believe. These three Muslims ruling the hearts of the Indian masses go a long way to show the secular nature of India, where talent, not religion, determines standing in society.
Shah Rukh Khan, also known as the Tom Cruise of India, started his acting career with small roles in television. It was through sheer will power and perseverance that he finally made it in the highly competitive world of Bollywood. SRK had no connections in Bollywood, and it is only on the basis of being a good actor that he was able to earn a name for himself. SRK introduced the concept of anti-hero in Bollywood.
He is inspired by Rajesh Khanna and is said to copy the latter's acting style; Khanna was the first mega star of Bollywood. Famous for his romantic roles, SRK has the singular honor that his film Dil Waley Dulhania Ley Jaine Gae, made in 1995, is still running in a Mumbai Theater. King Khan also produced and directed Bollywood's first sci-fi film, Ra-One. King Khan received international acclaim for his film My Name Is Khan, a post 9/11 depiction of the state of Muslims in America. He has received all the awards that Bollywood has to offer. He is happily married to a Hindu, Gauri Khan, and has three children.
Amir Khan, who is referred to as the Tom Hanks of Bollywood, is a thorough professional. He hails from a devout Muslim family with strong ties with Bollywood. He started acting at a very tender age. He, too, is a fan of Rajesh Khanna and Danny Day Lewis. Khan is very choosy about the films he acts in; unlike other stars, he only acts in one film at a time.
He shuns all the film awards and award ceremonies. He is the recipient of Padma Bhusan Award, one of the highest civilian awards conferred by the Indian government. He has made many memorable films, but 3 Idiots is by far the best.
The novel, Wanting Mor, by Rukhsana Khan is an enthralling tale of life lessons. The story unfolds through the eyes of a traumatised Afghan female named, Jameela. Jameela begins to discover and comprehend themes and morals of life after witnessing the death of her loving mother, Mor. As the novel progresses, numerous themes arise throughout the course of the novel. This powerful novel depicts themes of confidence, tranquility, and righteousness in the cruel cold-hearted world in which Jameela inhabits.
Attila the Hun, Genghiz Khan, and Tamerlane share the same reputation of brutal, blood-thirsty barbarians who were after nothing more (or less) but the destruction of the so-called civilized world. Do they deserve this reputation or a case can be made in defense of one or all of these leaders?
Robin Williams was a standup comedian and actor, who was in films such as Mrs. Doubtfire, Aladdin, and Dead Poets Society. Ben Stiller in an interview with Rolling Stone says: “He made many, many film crews laugh out loud before the audiences ever saw it. He made such a big impact on the world. So there is the man, and his talent and I think in his case both were extraordinary” (Montgomery). Robin Williams comedy was groundbreaking and influential.
Khubilai Khan The founder of China's Yuan, or Mongol, Dynasty was a brilliant statesman and. military leader Khubilai Khan. Grandson and the best-known successor of the Great Mongol conqueror Genghis Khan, Khubiliai became the first emperor of the Mongols. Empire.
Genghis Khan’s leadership, the Mongols were simply a group of diverse tribes. Constantly hostile towards China, the Mongols went through the Bronze Age and Iron Age as separate tribes. However, during the 12th and 13th centuries, this would change. Thought to be born in 1155 or 1162, Temujin (later known as Chinggis and Genghis Khan) was one of six siblings and a violent nomad. Coincidently, he had a blood clot in his arm - to the Mongols, this was a sign meaning he was destined to become a great leader.
Throughout the 1100s, there was a constant war within the Mongols as to who would become the Khan, which is an official title that is given to the people’s ruler. The film, Mongol, is all about how Chinggis Khan, or Genghis Khan as many know him as, rose to power. The film starts off with Chinggis Khan as a prisoner of the Tangut kingdom where he then reminisces on his early life where he was known as Temujin, since he was yet to become the Mongol’s khan. The film follows Temujin from his life as a child to the moment right before he became the official khan of all the Mongols. With this being said, the film is not as historically accurate as one would think.
Even more than this, though, Rahim Khan also seems to be an all-knowing figure in the household. He knew about the rape and that Amir witnessed it and yet did nothing. However, this knowledge can be used for anything. Instead of using it to take advantage of Amir, he uses this knowledge to sympathize with Amir. Just as a father should do, he takes Amir’s side and supports him, even though Amir does not deserve it.
Religion and human nature combined tend to create a superiority complex among those who perceive themselves as having better, or more, faith. Religion is generally perceived as singular, but humans choose to dynamically express their faith, whether that be by love or war. Gandhi, depicted the movie Gandhi directed by Richard Attenborough, in the face of Muslims protesting Hindus, declared: “I am a Muslim and a Hindu and a Christian and a Jew and so are all of you,” and that perception of himself and others influenced a mass ethnic and religious revolution that enlightened India. Gandhi opened the world to revolutionary ideas -- the strength in tolerance, the pluralism in religion, and the unification of all mankind.

Genghis Khan was a Mongolian born in Born in 1162 and died in Western Xia, Aug 18, 1227. Before he was awarded with the name of Genghis Khan, or the universal ruler, he was called Temujin. Just by the age of nine, a women named Borte was engaged to Temujin. His father was a tribe leader; but it wasn’t long after Temujin came back and found out that his father was poisoned by rival tribes. During that period of time, Temujin wasn’t strong enough to compete with other men, thus, he was driven out along with his family from the tribe.Seeking for revenge, he formed an alliance with Borte’s tribes after they were successfully married. When he terminated the vengeance, the unification of other Mongol tribes began. Many by many, all tribes submitted themselves to Temujin’s enormous armies. They then named him Genghis Khan.
