Completely Original Screenplay, Very Different, Very Interesting

I was really impressed with this movie, it was very different to so many Bollywood films out there and even Hollywood films. The acting was good, the setting beautiful and the plot very original. It had a good message at the heart of it about faith and belief in god and what I particularly liked was, it avoided delving it in to stereotypical views of female Muslims. Nevertheless there are one or two boring scenes as in too long, albeit there are some very beautiful, simple and symbolic ones too. Thankfully there's no unnecessary sex scenes (although the topic is very mildly discussed in two scenes). Emraan Hashimi was very good as was the actress who plays Aliya (very beautiful girl). Yes there are one or two unbelievable scenes but that aside its definitely worth watching, there's action and romance although zero comedy so people looking for good time should avoid. Its a movie that leaves you thinking, and I especially love the second to last scene- stunning...The music is gorgeous and fits each scene in its played in as well as the whole movie overall perfectly....
