Movie:
Bride & Prejudice (2004)
Directed
by Gurinder Chadha
About
the Story: The
determined Mrs. Bakshi sets out to find marriage matches for
her four beautiful daughters while there's a lavish wedding
party in town. Right away, the smart and headstrong Lalita
announces she will only marry for love, giving her mother
nightmares. Then Lalita meets wealthy American Will Darcy,
and sparks immediately fly. But is it love or hate?
According
to Gurinder Chadha, Ashanti's appearance in the film is meant
as a homage to a tradition in Bollywood films where a celebrity
would make a cameo appearance to sing a song that has no direct
involvement in the plot. The rest of the characters do not
interact with the celebrity but rather are seen in the crowd
enjoying the show.
