Rahul Seth is a dashing young millionaire who believes he is "western" enough to rebel against his mother and grandmother. They are not too keen about his Caucasian girlfriend Kimberly who, to make matters worse, is a pop star. Before you can say "karmic intervention," Kimberly dies in a freak accident and Rahul is devastated. Instead of allowing him to mourn in peace, Rahul's mother sees the opportunity she's been waiting for. She threatens to call off his sister's wedding unless he finds himself a "nice Indian girl." Rahul enlists the services of Sue, a fiercely independent escort whom he believes to be Hispanic, and therefore not "married" to the conventions taught to young Indian women. With a wink in her eye, Sue accepts the deal to pose as his Indian bride-to-be. She needs the money and having never been a fan of the typical Indian male, she feels her heart is safe. The charade begins....

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS I saw this film and thought it was fresh and original. While if it was about heterosexual people in Isreal and Palestine it would have seemed typical romeo and Juliet stuff, this film took it to the next level. it was funny, romantic, sad.there was a feeling of constant dread that i felt throughout. Expecting some extremist to come out of nowhere and attack. I felt I was part of that community. I was always interested.My sincere congrats to the filmmakers. I would say that my only complaint is it has too many endings-like 5 of 6 places it should have ended and would have been completely satisfying. i thought it was me at first but i asked other viewers who thought the same thing. almost as if they were trying for feature length. It would have made a stunning 40 minute short documentary. at 66 mins it's slightly padded, but does not take away from the investment the viewer has made very very well done.
