| Description |
Capturing the brightness and vivacity of Bollywood and its infectious sense of energy, this effervescent adaptation of Jane Austen's classic novel 'Pride and Prejudice' replaces the Bennett sisters with the Bakshi sisters and moves their home from rural England to small town India. The Bakshi family have four beautiful daughters ripe for marriage and given every encouragement by their traditional mother, Mrs Bakshi (Nadira Babbar).
In their vibrant hometown full of fun and friends, the girls just can't seem to find the sort of man they are looking for. The eldest daughter Jaya (Namrata Shirodkar) attracts the attentions of rich, handsome Balraj (Naveen Andrews), home on a trip from England, while Lalita (Aishwarya Rai) takes a strong dislike to his friend, the snobbish, condescending American hotelier Will Darcy (Martin Henderson)... |
