The two fall in love in Los Angeles, but are then forcibly separated by circumstance, as Reena must return to Asia to tend to her seriously ill father and enter an arranged marriage with a cocky, egomaniacal producer named Shekhar (Gulshan Grover). Failing to understand (or accept) these circumstances, Alex then flies to India, heart-in-tow, determined to win Reena back - and immediately runs head-first into madcap conflicts with both Shekhar and Reena's parents.

This movie showcased a beautiful actress from India & her ability to dance & sing. Indian scenery, customs, the wealthy lifestyle is interesting. No scenes of poor in India were shown. The story is rather unbelievable.

This movie is as good if not better than anything Hollywood turns out. There is No violence, no foul language, and no explicit sex scenes. just good clean fun, definitely worth watching

ADRIAN M.

I am a big fan of Bollywood meets Hollywood and when done right, both compliment each other and give the viewer something to cheer about, but even though this movie had potential, it fell flat. There was no chemistry between the characters and it came off as a bad soap opera experiment.
