Winderfuly film

A funny and heartwarming look at Muslim-American life. An eye-opener for anyone who is unfamiliar with this community. This film deserves wide distribution.

Poignant and relevant!

The movie was a lighthearted take on very relevant issues faced by immigrant families especially from the south Asian diaspora. I enjoyed the story line, the comic relief and the women empowerment in the movie! Great job!

Navigating the intricacies of identity and cultural expectations

This romcom follows the lives of three women navigating the different meanings and expectations of love as they try to stay true to their own identity. This is an upbeat film and while formulaic, one still looks forward to how things will play out for each in the end. I loved it!

Charming slice of American Muslim Pakistani life

This passion project offers a window into the modern Pakistani American experience in the guise of a rom-com. Immigrants and people looking to make life better for themselves and their families will be able to relate to these stories of three women looking for fulfillment.

Hilarious and so relatable

Americanish made me laugh out loud. It is so relatable. Having grown up in different countries and finally becoming my own person in the US, I related to both the sisters. I remember the exact day when I decided to remove my hijab. In my professional life, I've had to bite my tongue many times, so I fully relate to Sam. The mother daughter relationship was so well portrayed. As heavy as all these topics were, it was phenomenal that Americanish made me laugh so hard. Muslim women are not monolithic. We are multifaceted and Americanish did a great job portraying that.
