She is literally the best representation that muslims got unlike some netflix series....some ppl wont understand the value and the need for normal representation of muslims
Still not accurate. promoting many Stereotypes but still better then others.
not exactly a good representation tho, just a responsible one.
As a guy who was raised Christian by an abusive father, you guys deserve at least representation. But not token representation. Real representation. I grew up in a mostly South Asian community in a suburb of Vancouver, Canada, and I'm a 41 year old guy who wasn't in comic books at any time, but I gave this a chance and felt like I was back in high school hanging out with my Pakistani and Indian friends. Iman is so Canadian and you can just see the wonder and appreciation in her eyes. Seeing the world through this character's eyes was just incredible. You should be very proud. This isn't about tokenism or representation for its own sake. If you're going to do it, don't just have a Muslim character for the sake of having a Muslim character. Make her believable. I'm just a dumb white guy, but I bought her Islamic experience because I knew kids like her in high school, trying to balance their faith with just fitting in and being a normal kid. As someone who had a very strict upbringing of my own, that resonated with me. I almost saw the world through her eyes. She's trying to be a normal teenager, but one of her parents isn't entirely sold on that - at all. I don't subscribe to any faith now, but I deeply respect people trying to be who they are while maintaining their background as much as they can. She's fantastic.
borning in muslim family doesn't make anyone muslim , she is a kafir
she is absolutely adorable, i love her so much
Watching her is a real joy. She represents us Muslim brown folks who were born in America but always felt we didn’t belong here.
Captain Marvel is still my favorite Avenger. There, I said it. She stole the show in _Avengers: Endgame._ She's a bad@ss.
Ughhh that's cool.
She has an amazing personality, perfect casting for ms marvel lol. Idk why people are hating on the show and calling it “woke” when it literally isn’t.
Toxic "fans".
because people dont like to see POC and women leading a marvel story. she happens to be both. very sad. the show is actually fun
To alot of people accepting Muslims and lgbt is just woke. Sad stuff really
@@samirmuhammad1781 it doesn’t have to do with women, no one had a problem with black widow or scarlet witch, Wonder Woman in dc, Harley Quinn from dc. Really none of them. The people hating are just anti Muslim
It's actually a very authentic take on South Asian culture
God, she's all over the place with this interviews.. Marvel.. Don't forget she's just a kid too... Let her rest
She's promoting the show and that's one of her jobs. She can rest after the show ends.
It's her job. I'm sure she has a support system. She just has to dodge the toxicity and she'll be fine
19 years old ain't a "kid"
So proud of her ☺😊
I hope fame doesn’t ruin her life
She looks very down to earth. I do hope that stays the same because she’s so fresh and charismatic.
That the worrying thing here because fame could corrupt her and make her forget about Islam,look at zayne malik corrupted by fame and gave up Islam
i love how she's so articulate, we're a year apart and the way she patiently build up her point on the representation point is impressive to me cs i feel like I would've just give up and say "im glad that now brown Pakistani muslim are on mcu" or something way simpler than that
I am a Pakistani I was born in Malaysia but I never forgot my routes so I went back to my country and lived in Pakistan and proud to be Pakistani
roots*
But your roots are India lol
@@waltersike this is my route 🇮🇳💩🇮🇳💩🇮🇳
@@MuhammadAli-gi8tw but For India, 💩 is Pakistan. I heard you ppl can't even afford chai these days. Awww i feel bad
Glad you used the 'routes' that you did not forget to go back to your "Roots" .
I'm feeling proud as a Pakistani 🇵🇰
Are you a Hindu?
@@waltersike nope a Muslim
@@waltersike do you insult people after confirming their religion and nationality?
@@solace2210 i am curious how can someone named Chaudhry be a Muslim? Isn't it a Hindu surname? Plz educate me
@@waltersike
"Chaudhry" is a term adapted from the Sanskrit word caturdhara, literally "holder of four" (four denoting a measure of land, from chatur ("four") and dhara ("holder" or "possessor") The name is a Sanskrit term denoting the head of a community or caste. It was a title awarded to persons of eminence, including both Muslims and Hindus, during the Mughal Empire. It was also used as a title by military commanders responsible for four separate forces, including the cavalry, navy, infantry and elephant corps.These people belonged to the zamindar families in British India, that got separated in 1947 into two different countries Hindustan and Pakistan on the basis of religion and their distinct values .
Anyone can be a Muslim if he believes that there's no God but Allah Almighty and holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) is the last messanger of Allah (SWT) and submits his will to Allah (SWT) by following the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (SAW).
So you can also be a Muslim.
Names doesn't matter but one has to change his name if it's meaning is bad and contradicts with the teachings of Islam.
And I guess Chaudhry is a good name so Muslims aquired it too.
I hope you got it and please don't spread hate. Humanity comes first that's what Islam teaches us and I guess every religion including Hinduism.
I'm a Muslim and I see myself in Kamala. I'm a superfan, too! Ms. Marvel is the absolute best Muslim representation that I've seen in awhile. Iman Vellani is a gem!
It must be so tedious for an actor to have to answer the same questions over and over and over and over again
finally seeing good muslim representation in the west that isn't hyper exotic or stereotyped
She's adorable ❤️
Good kid. Good situation. I hope it remains that way for both. And she is natural about the balance of cultures and honest about its place in her life. Now... clearly someone has managed to do it without "grossly overdoing it", take note hollywood, disney. Genuine is what people want. When you cant determine what that is? Step out of the way please.
Love the show. She has incredible talent and lol so adorable!!!!
She looks like she could be Rami Malek's sister or daughter.
I watched the first episode and she definitely played her part extremely well 😊
Looking forward for more episodes
Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰💖
so happy for her
Coolest thing since Miles Morales and the Spider-Verse!!!!!
Masha allah, she is a wonderful lady
Amazing series !! Loving the Pakistani , Indian series
She didn't even say India in her whole interview😅
@@kirito259 Indian actors and Pakistan actors both in the show plus a few Bollywood references too

very pretty
Ini seolah olah menjadi nyata, Marvel Cinematic Universe adalah Tatanan Dunia Baru
Its nice to see a Muslim character portrayed as heroes because it was always a terrorist of the girl being saved from terrorists by white saviors
Because it is the truth
@@smilingtiger.5993 blinded person here lmao
This Is A Comic Joke.Richard.
Low key Kylie Jenner
omg. if she gets some lip filler, she becomes kylie lol
Kylie is plastic lol
The audacity of you to compare that white lady to a natural brown skin woman. Kylie wishes she was her
@@mariyalone You and the rest of the deranged fans are the reason why that family keeps having black children. Oooh chile the ignorance.
@@jaquanpowell4605 definitely ain't a fan!!
u legit seem to be ignorantly obsessed (get a life bruh).
PAKISTANI MUSLIM REPERSENTATION!!!!
Finally MCU accepting Muslim behavior 💕😘🤩
Fart in a Box!
Nice summary of your life and value.
@@KingOfCoolness Thanks for summing it up!
Hope you smelled yours!
But enough about you...
And as for those who are guilty of an indecency from among your women, call to witnesses against them four (witnesses) from among you; then if they bear witness confine them to the houses until death takes them away or Allah opens some way for them. Quran 4:15

Erm, she's not really considered a Muslim by mainstream Sunni Muslims as she belongs to a sect (Ismaili) within Shia strand of Islam. So not sure why her 'Muslimness' is being lauded. Having said that, I'm all for diversity in cinema and this is a great move by Marvel (I am a fan).
Don't judge her Taqwa. You don't know her personally, do you?
@@bravosix8166 have you seen the way she dresses? fundmentals of being a muslim is modesty. She is not representing a Muslim lol. No hate to her. she's very talented but nah not representative of muslim
@@fanoor2427 nope that's not right either. No place for you to judge anyone, especially other Muslims if you are one. However this is the Internet. You are free to do it, but answer to your conscience yourself.
@@fanoor2427 although modesty is suggested in islam its not a compulsion, do or die situation. Weren't u ever told the story of how the holy prophet (pbuh) didnt let his companion tell a woman they saw to dress more modestly , and instead told him to lower his gaze?. And its not like she is in micro shorts and a tube top or smth either.
I'm a Muslim and I consider her 100%. She makes me feel represented.

They wish you would disbelieve as they disbelieved so you would be alike. So do not take from among them allies until they emigrate for the cause of Allah. But if they turn away, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them and take not from among them any ally or helper. Quran 4:89
Everything about Democrats is race and religion.. She's a cool character we don't care what religion she is or what her race is... Everything is about race baiting and religion baiting when it comes to your titles
You are the one bringing politics into this you idiot. Has nothing to do with Democrats.
Trump has brainwashed you mindless sheep to whine about everything through political lens.
Race and representation was a big issue in Hollywood so of course they are going to point it out.
The magnitude of your ignorance is astounding
Only in your mind.
Huh?
Super slam the WTC.
No, Iman isn't evil and you have a crush on her. She's picture-perfect blue, sunbathing on the moon. Stars shining as her bones illuminate. First kiss just like a drug, under her influence. Swear you feel the magic in your veins - this must be love! *romantic electropop music*
Polishing Muslims now is uncomfortable , after distorting them more than fifty years on small and large screens politically socially , it is very strange and suspicious . It was supposed to be rehabilitated more realistically fairly than a lie that is more rude than before
Given how Muslim men treat their women, gays, apostates and non-Muslims, I couldn't care less about them.
@@BroJo676 You are imbued with the ideas You received from movies and the media, you are impressed by women who have turned into poisoned feminists who hate men, hate marriage and hate children.
About gay people it's wrong Distorted sexual arousal.
Monkeypox virus found in semen. Is it enough to call it STI?
Labelling monkeypox sexually transmitted diseases / infection will lead to stigmatisation of particular community, feel experts
*MEGA CRINGE*
I'm sure you're not the only bigot who feels that way
You really need a better villain name than that.
Ur probably just jealous
Or can’t accept someone different than u
*@LeggoMyEggo64 SuperSagaGalaxyCrunch* Nope, not cringe. It's love or it's lust; you just need to be clear! 'Cause if you're in love, then I shouldn't be here! Were warm to the touch, you're colder than winter now! Ooh whoa oh oh oh!
The first Muslim in marvel is black panther but Ms. marvel is the first woman’s Muslim in marvel
Black Panther is not Muslim. The first Muslim superhero is Scarlet Scarab from Moon knight.
black panther is an African superhero
@@redhood1278 please learn the difference between nationality, ethnicity and religion
The magnitude of your ignorance is astounding
??? T'challa has always been portrayed as a follower of Wakanda's official 'Panther Cult'. Where did you get the idea he was Muslim?
What the f. Is Muslim experience i mean show some sensitivity abc.
That's not really what a Muslim is!MIS presentation...that's not a true Muslim
"We wanted to show it as real as possible don't want to glamorize religion"
Ep 1 :*shows according to the western standards (not realistic at all)*
Muslims when in minority-we want equal rights
Muslims when in majority-we want sharia law🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sister, do you know how sharia law works?
How is that any different than Christian influence of western culture?
@@rajasvlogs2061 we don't care
@@stevep8490 i am not a christian Dude
@@rajasvlogs2061 yes
of cource
It's great that they tapped someone who's a complete unknown for the Kamala Khan/Ms. Marvel role. She's perfect casting and a wonderful addition to the MCU family.
