Truly Dreadful Film

Absolutely Brilliant!

A Masterpiece!

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

This is a well made, extremely relevant and riotously comical american desi film. If you are of east Indian Origin, you will find this hilarious!! If not, you will still find it interesting. Recommended for all ages and cultures. I know of many such families as depicted in the movie. The music is great too!

I really enjoyed this movie a lot. It may be a low budget, first-time effort but I came away with a sense of exhilaration that few movies have provided lately. The story of an Indian-American college student at "Jersey University" gives an insight into the Indian culture that can be compared to any other race. Typical parent-child disagreements are highlighted hilariously many times in the film. Aalok Mehta plays a musician pretending to be a pre-med major. His acting is good & his musical talents are even better. Sheetal Sheth plays his love interest. She is a very pretty, very capable actress who lights up the screen. The rest of the cast performs very well. It is part comedy. part musical, part Indian, part American, but all fun ! Director Anurag Mehta ( Aalok's brother ) shows enormous talent & potential. I am looking forward to the Mehta Brothers' next project. I just hope this movie gets to reach a big enough audience so it can get the credit it deserves. I strongly recommend it to movie lovers of all ages and nationalities.

WHAT!? I cannot believe someone wrote this thing and I can't believe someone paid money to have it made! The most predictable movie EVER. I can't believe after all the bad movies in the history of film, someone would still be writing this cheese. The Mehta's get respect for effort and actually getting to make the film, but I feel bad for the poor representation of Indian-Americans. It's your classic tradition versus modern tale, but this time with Indian-Americans and music. Bad jokes, horrendous stereotypes, plain bad acting, save me! Take away the dirty jokes and you have something that would most fittingly be called an "after-school special from 1991."

I found this to be an inoffensive, mildly entertaining, fluff comedy. This is the sort of movie I would recommend renting to watch with a friend or your mom or something on a Saturday afternoon. Watch for Josh of "New MMC" fame.
