A clash of cultures in the spirit of 'My Big Fat Greek Wedding', this modern musical retelling of Jane Austen's classic 'Pride And Prejudice' is a hilariously entertaining tale of one girl's unlikely search for love! Sparks immediately fly as a love/hate relationship ignites between a small-town beauty (International star Aishwarya Rai) and a wealthy American (Martin Henderson?'The Ring', 'Torque') who's visiting her modest Indian village! In a swirl of music, dance and comic misunderstandings, these opposites continue to attract and repel one another in a riotous romance that spans three continents! Featuring Naveen Andrews (TV's 'Lost', 'The English Patient') and a memorable performance from top recording artist Ashanti?love will eventually conquer all in this acclaimed treat from the director of 'Bend It Like Beckham'!
Synopsis: The determined Mrs. Bakshi sets out to find marriage matches for her four beautiful daughters while there's a lavish wedding party in town. Right away, the smart and headstrong Lalita announces she will only marry for love, giving her mother nightmares. Then Lalita meets wealthy American Will Darcy, and sparks immediately fly. But is it love or hate? Darcy comes off to Lalita as an arrogant California snob. Lalita looks to Darcy like a small-town Indian beauty who knows nothing of the world. Alternately enchanted by and suspicious of one another, Lalita and Darcy nearly fall prey to assumptions, gossip and a comedy of errors--until pride is humbled and prejudice overcome so that love can triumph.
