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

The acting was wooden and cringe-worthy and the script was so horrible, I started skimming to the end of the movie just to see how it would all play out. Overall, it was a B (or C?) movie and Jesse Metcalfe was just in it because he's eye-candy, not because he can act. The comic relief with the Indian families was the only thing that made it bearable.It could've been a great romantic comedy if: (1) they used actors who immersed themselves in their roles, not pretended they were putting on a play, (2) took the cheesy-ness out of the script, (3) had a bit more of a work up into the romance. It was in no way genuine.Too bad - it had the potential of being better.

Well,I didn't have so much expectations from this movie.But the way it turned up,I kinda liked it pretty much. Its a perfect piece for 'getting-to-know' Indian women.Priya Sethi is well put up a character.Watch her character closely.There so much in it.And Shriya saran played it amazing,a perfect justice to the young innocent character dreaming high.You will definitely like Charlie(Austin Basis) too.Jesse metcalfe has done a fair job.Anupam Kher Also too good. This piece is much portrayed from Indian angle.Alhough sometimes the romance seemed to me induced sort of,but it went well at the spot.Women at call centres must watch it.Fresh,alive,very much a positive romantic piece.Worth-watching!!

I really liked the movie and i'am not sure as to why it is rated sooo low, the chemistry between jesse metcalfe and shreya is great in the movie,their conversations on the phone are nicely shot,i also like the scene where jesse walks towards her in the hotel and does not recognize her.jesse looks more mature and even more attractive in this movie.he fits in the role just right. anupam kher is really funny and has done a good job,except for few scenes like the way mumbai is shown looks like as if its picked up from some documentary, and the last kissing scene would have been better without all those call center employees watching them doing that.but it gives a nice refreshing feeling after watching the movie. so go see it.

The plot follows the tried-and-tested romcom formula of boy-meets-girl - -> fall in love --> misunderstanding --> patch up --> happy ending. And in all honesty this "hybrid" movie had pretty good chances to strike it gold doing a piggy-back ride on the success of "Slumdog Millionaire". And to realise that, better writing was warranted. There are umpteen places where you feel why are the potholes are glaring at you? The girl's idea of her version of hen-night could have marinated better. And her parents tailing her is probably the lowest point in the movie. So is the creative guys finding stealing the idea from the girl. Well, the list just goes on. Shirya Sharan get the biggest pie, so much that it seems the movie was made to give her footing into the Hollywood.Jesse Metcalfe is confident. As the creative person in the movie, he falters in a few places.Anupam Kher, Sushmita Mukherjee, Kiran Juneja were plain loud. Tara Sharma reprises her usual "coy" performance.Not bad if you want to watch it when aired on telly.Ashok Amritraj – better luck next time.
