Much ado about nothing
17 March 2002
I really wanted to like this film since so many other serious filmgoers were raving about the quality of the film. I found the story to be lacking. There are far too many characters in this film and little depth dedicated to the development of each individual. There is an element of insincerity in the film. Is this an exploration of modern day India, colliding with modern day manners? or is this just a happy confection dedicated to the idea that all's well that ends well as long as we can celebrate with a party?

The bride to be is in love with a married television producer who will never leave his wife. When she breaks up with him, she decides that she needs to come clean with her husband to be before they can honestly begin their life together. How many men would go for this? She was obviously emotionally entangled with this other man yet will go ahead with this new marriage because it will take her away from India and give her a fresh start.

I was looking for a film that spoke authentically about emotions and love. This wasn't the one.

The search continues.
