Top CriticAli Larter plays an amazingly bitchy actress sent to Bollywood. They hate her, then they love her. I didn't quite get the love bit.

Top CriticGoofy and sweet.

Top CriticAs Prem's dad says of his son's feature film career, "I know nothing about dancing and the plots seem ludicrous to me."

Top CriticDespite boasting bags of colour, energy and top Bollywood actor Salman Khan, this cross cultural concoction falls halfway between the genres.
08/17/07
Top CriticThis fluffy cross-cultural experiment smacks of jumping on the Bollywood bandwagon with little insight into the genre it is trying to emulate or understanding of the country in which it’s set.

Top CriticThe final half hour may lose its way but this remains a sassy and endearing romantic effort.

Top Critic[Director] Carroll knows his Bollywood stuff and, refreshingly, doesn’t apologize for, or waste time explaining, an industry and a style that most Americans still regard as silly. Instead, he honors them.
