Firstly, the
movie is called SHAAHID (like Afridi – for lack of any other comparison) not
SHAHEED (as in martyr). Just to ensure
that there is no confusion on the pronunciation. Shahid is based on the life and times of one
Shahid Azmi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shahid_Azmi)
– a human rights lawyer who defended several people wrongfully accused of terrorism
or related activities.
