The Muslims I Know (2008)

The events of 9/11 have created much interest in Islam and Muslims. Mainstream media have responded to this demand for information with sweeping generalizations and easy stereotypes. America's small community of Muslims longs to be a part of that discourse. This documentary gives them a chance to be heard and understood, through a dialogue with non Muslims Americans.

Pakistan One on One (2011)

Pakistan is constantly in the news yet we know very little about the people of Pakistan. This short documentary tries to bridge that gap by answering the question: what does the man or the woman on the streets of Lahore think about America. Shot entirely in Lahore, Pakistan One on One is a broad survey of public opinion about issues of interest to Americans such as the possibility of democracy in Pakistan, the War on Terror, the Taliban and American foreign policy in the region.

Film about the Partition of India (2013)

Slated for post-production in 2013, this documentary will explore the partition of India in 1947 by interviewing people on both sides of the Pakistani-Indian border. Rather than undertaking a large-scale historical study, the film will unfold as a personal narrative told in two different voices – one Pakistani and one Indian, both second generation citizens of their respective countries whose families were affected by partition. Animation and music will be used to re-create vivid memories of pre-partition India. The film will be a collaborative project with Indian filmmaker Surbhi Dewan.
