This film was directed by Gurinder Chadha, the British director of the popular 2002 film, "Bend it Like Beckham." The film takes Jane Ausen's "Pride and Prejudice" and turns it into a musical comedy set in India and played in the melodramatic Indian manner that has come to be known as "Bollywood." Its multinational cast includes Indian film star Aishwarya Rai in her first appearance in an English-language film. The BBC said the film is marked by "wit and mischief" and constitutes "a romantic comedy that amply delivers on its eastern promise." It was nominated for two British Independent Film awards in 2004.

Rated PG-13.
