The Bollywood movie "My Name Is Khan" directed by Karen Johar will be screened in China on November, 30, the website Mtime.com reports.

"My Name is Khan" is set mostly in the United States and follows a storyline similar to that of the movie "Forrest Gump."

Rizwan Khan (Shah Rukh Khan), a Muslim from Mumbai, suffers from Asperger's syndrome. He meets an ethnic Hindu single mother named Mandira in San Francisco. The two dispel all religious prejudices and get married. After hijacked planes crash into the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York on September 11, 2001, their peaceful lives collapse. Bias and resentment against Muslims surge in America. Rizwan embarks on a journey to meet the U.S. President and tell him "My name is Khan, and I'm not a terrorist."

Shahrukh Khan, an Indian movie superstar, is the leading actor in the film. His other movies, including "Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna" (2006), "Om Shanti Om" (2007) and "Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi" (2008) have made him one of the most successful Indian actors.
