Bill's character has the arab girl sing Wild World and Peace Train at the contest, probably as a way to placate the Afghanis since Stevens famously converted to Islam later in life. This was a clever move in a fun and touching film.
shareJust one of the reasons it is a flop.... I heard the director interview about going to see " Yusuf Islam," an known supporter or terrorism to get his permission to use ' Cat Stevens " music.... So this movie also paid to help terrorism .. I said it would be a flop when I heard the interview....
The people are Afghans. Afghanis is their currency.
