TRIVIA

Trivia

The film is very autobiographical. Writer Ayub Khan-Din was also shipped off to Pakistan as an unruly child from Salford in England (where East Is East (1999) was set) to try and straighten him out.

The Pakistani scenes were shot first.

Zita Sattar, who plays Neelam, actually played the family's daughter Meena in the original stage production. The character of Meena does not appear in the film.

The housing estate where the Khans live at the start of the film was scheduled for demolition. The council delayed this to allow filming to take place.

The space hopper featured in the first film what gets popped when run over is seen in the opening scene
