Bride & Prejudice
Synopsis
Gurinder Chadha, previously known for Bhaji on the Beach and Bend It Like Beckham, sprinkles Jane Austen's classic novel with Bollywood magic. Set in the modern day, William Darcy, a rich New York hotelier, is visiting India to join his best friend Balraj at a wedding and check out possible sites to expand his empire. Also at the wedding are the Bakshi family, including Lalita Bakshi. While for Balraj and Lalita's older sister Jaya it's love at first sight, for Darcy and Lalita, it's antipathy at first sight, as he makes tactless remarks about her family and Indian traditions while she considers him an imperialist and a snob. But as they keep bumping into each other, so they find themselves drawn closer and, of course, in the end true love prevails. Witty, with some wonderful OTT characters, including Lalita's mother, played by Nadira Babbar, and Nitin Ganatra as Darcy's rival, make this a delight with, of course, colourful song-and-dance sequences galore. With some Hindi, Punjabi and Spanish language sections with English subtitles. Edited for language.
