Cinema against Muslims allows them to take a critical reflection about their own beliefs and culture. It has been increasing in Indian cinemas especially in the south, in last few years. Very recently there has been a great issue against the film ‘Vishwaroopam’ directed by a famous actor ‘Kamal haasan’.

As a result it was analyzed that all the papers have given a positive impact on supporting the film especially Dinamalar all together by analyzing deeply there were no impact given for the core reason of Muslim’s protest over this film.
