Hindu ( pronunciation ) has historically been used as a geographical, cultural or religious identifier for people indigenous to the Indian subcontinent. In contemporary use, Hindu refers to anyone who regards himself or herself as culturally, ethnically or religiously adhering to aspects of Hinduism.
The historical meaning of the term Hindu has evolved with time. Starting with the Persian and Greek references to India in the 1st millennium BCE through the texts of the medieval era, the term Hindu implied a geographic, ethnic or cultural identifier for people living in Indian subcontinent around or beyond Sindhu (Indus) river. By the 16th-century, the term began to refer to residents of India who were not Turks or Muslims.
The historical development of Hindu self-identity within the Indian population, in a religious or cultural sense, is unclear. Competing theories state that Hindu identity developed in the British colonial era, or that it developed post-8th century CE after the Islamic invasion and medieval Hindu-Muslim wars. A sense of Hindu identity and the term Hindu appears in some texts dated between the 13th- and 18th-century in Sanskrit and regional languages. The 14th- and 18th-century Indian poets such as Vidyapati, Kabir and Eknath used the phrase Hindu dharma (Hinduism) and contrasted it with Turaka dharma (Islam). The Christian friar Sebastiao Manrique used the term 'Hindu' in religious context in 1649. In the 18th-century, the European merchants and colonists began to refer to the followers of Indian religions collectively as Hindus, in contrast to Mohamedans for Mughals and Arabs following Islam. By mid 19th-century, colonial orientalist texts further distinguished Hindus from Buddhists, Sikhs and Jains, but the colonial laws continued to consider all of them to be within the scope of the term Hindu until about mid 20th-century. Scholars state that the custom of distinguishing between Hindus, Buddhists, Jains and Sikhs is a modern phenomenon.

Plot: Simon is released from prison after a three month drug sentence that should have belonged to his father. He returns home to find his brother Jason and his friends are there to welcome him back. They drink and discuss an opportunistic robbery from a local dealer, but Simon declines even when Roach suggests going on the lamb together to prevent loose lips. After a confrontation with his father, Simon is forced to flee, having no other option than to do the ill-fated robbery. Unbeknownst to the boys, they are recognized during the robbery and not only is Zane on their tail, but another criminal named The Hindu and even Simon's own father are also en-route. Once they make it to the cabin, one of the boys drinks too much and shows his true colors as he spirals, eventually leading to the kidnapping of a young woman and the accidental shooting of one of the friends, sending the situation into chaos. Things continue to spiral as Simon's father, Zane and the Hindu eventually all find their hiding place, with each them working toward their own end in an effort to steal the money and kill the boys. Both Simon's loyalty and sense of morality are tested as he has to carefully choose both his friends and actions in order to survive.
