Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

London seems to be in many films of bollywood Be it BHAGAM BHAG, HERO HINDUSTANI, JBJ Now even titles having LondonNAMASTEY London is nothing new though it's not anything as bad as Akki's films off late The story is damn simple and thin there are some funny moments like the rugby match and some more but otherwise the film is too plainDirection by Vipul Shah is ordinary Music is good, AANAN FANAN is bestAkshay underplays his part brilliantly and suits his part He is brilliant in emotional scenes too Katrina for once dubs her self her lines and does well in her role Rishi is a highlight, he brings the house down and is simple yet lovable Upen Patel is okay rest are okay

This film is based on forced marriages, interracial relationships and the issues that arise in Asian families in the west. The script is really good but it is ruined by the actress Katrina Kaif, she cannot act, her overacts in certain areas and looks completely lost half the time. Akshay Kumar however provides the much needed comedy and will have you laughing.The topics are very thought provoking and as a British Asian I find myself asking the question is love really important or the values that my ancestors have...The English are portrayed as either party lovers or snobbish, which is totally incorrect. Howver like all Bollywood movies the music makes up for it. Chakna Chakna is amazing and will capture you....

Don't want to spoil it by saying many things about this movie...its indescribable.beautiful emotions and just right for the whole family, saw it alone on the plane to India and then with my grandparents in India. I would recommend that you watch it if you were in love, are in love or ever want to be in love. Its a special understanding for someone who lives abroad like me,and if you do too, you will appreciate it! The movie takes you on a journey that you perhaps have been on before, and this one you will still want to take. Needless to say its a Hindi film with the usual goof ups and slapstick humor,but if you have understood the emotion behind it, the director's task is accomplished. Watch it with family, friends, your love, and it will make more sense.

Being an European girl married to an Indian man, i was deeply consonant with Jazz's role. I am intrigued by some facts such as: why the British dude comes from a rich family, is selfish and unstable, why presenting the Europeans as ignorant about India and Indian culture, why picturing European girls as easy girls, addicted to nightclub life and indecent clothing, why keeping such high barriers between Indian values and European ones.We live in a world where inter-cultural relationships are becoming more and more present. Globalization, advanced technology and communication means, migration of people to more developed countries are prime criteria for this.For me, this movie presents the pattern thinking of a generation of people that cant accept these changes, with a defensive attitude, a fear from losing native values and beliefs.It is more comfortable to stick to these stereotypes than to try a real and open communication.I Love India, I admire and I respect Indian culture, Indian people, and I am proud to be a Hindi patni.
