Meet the Characters
Musalman
The Only Superhero That Matters.
In a nation gripped by Islamophobia, India’s first Muslim superhero emerges. By day, he’s a left-arm pacer, but when he dons the skullcape, he fights injustice with non-violence and reason. Born amidst communal riots, he is destined to challenge and defeat the ruthless Taana Shah.
Harami No.1 /Falahdeen
Falahdeen’s life takes a wild turn when he accidentally discovers a Genie in his newly crafted bong. Granted his wishes, he transforms into Harami No. 1, an anti-hero who deliberately offends and defies religious taboos. Despite his rebellious nature, he becomes Musalman’s closest ally, representing the flip side of the coin.
Begum Badass
Begum Badass is a burqa-clad superheroine who took up the Niqab of the Sisterhood after her husband was lynched by a mob. Driven by the need for justice, she mastered martial arts and deception, becoming Musalman’s most loyal ally in the fight against evil.
Musalman X
Musalman X rose from the streets of Chicago, shaped by the teachings of Malcolm X. As the black Musalman, this world-weary superhero dreams of uniting Muslim superheroes from across the globe into a powerful team.
Starwoman
Starwoman was an astronaut working with Melon Musk’s SpaceY. When her craft exploded on its maiden mission, she was saved by the spirit of David Bowie, who merged with her. She shares a deep, mysterious connection with Musalman, rooted in his childhood.
Taana Shah
He is the dictatorial ruler of Antim Pradesh, governing with an iron fist. A prophecy foretells that his reign will end at the hands of Musalman. Despite his relentless efforts to eliminate this threat before it materializes, some fates are inevitable.
Chairman Maose
Everyone’s favourite rodent, Chairman Maose is the head of the world’s largest movie studio – Fisney. He aims to turn Musalman into the most successful franchise, but his true plan is to tame Musalman by dulling his sharp edges, transforming him into harmless, toothless entertainment.
