In 1971 Salford fish-and-chip shop owner George Khan expects his family to follow his strict Pakistani Muslim ways. But his children, with an English mother and having been born and brought up in Britain, increasingly see themselves as British and start to reject their father's rules on dress, food, religion, and living in general. Written by Jeremy Perkins Zahir Khan was born in Pakistan and had got married for the first time there. Seeking better prospects, he immigrated to Britain, fell in love with Ella, a Caucasian, married her, and eventually became the father of six sons and one daughter. He wanted all of children to follow the Islamic tradition, and would parcel them in the "masjid van" every Friday for prayers and religious incantations. Arguements with Ella are one-sided, and end when he threatens to bring "Mrs. Khan" from Pakistan. His eldest son, Nadir, came to know that his dad was going to arrange his marriage, and ran away from home. Zahir, who now calls himself George, disowned him - all the more when he found out that Nadir is gay and is living with a male. While the children have all to settled down in the community, and have their respective romantic flings, they do not know that their father has plans to marry off two of his sons to two Pakistani sisters. Ella does her best in bringing up the children, and is not a party to the selection of two prospective Pakistani brides for two of her sons. Nevertheless, the family prepare themselves, and her sons are introduced to these women. After recovering from the initial shock of seeing the women face to face, the family settles down, leaving Khan to negotiate the details. Noticing that the apartment was very small, the brides' mother proposed that both boys should settle in their house after marriage. Watch how chaos takes over and how the overbearing Khan attempts to bring his family in line - or at least tries to, all this in the midst of Enoch Powell's announcement that his political party will expel all immigrants and send them back to their respective motherlands. Written by rAjOo (gunwanti@hotmail.com) In early 1970's England, a traditional Pakistani father (Om Puri) finds his family spinning in decidedly non-traditional directions. His brood consisting of six sons and one daughter all move in independent-minded directions set off when the eldest son runs away from home rather than keeping to his fate of an arranged marriage. When the next two sons also find out that their father has secretly been arranging marriages for them, they rebel and set off repercussions that forces the family to totally reconsider their family structure.
