Throw away your preconceptions going into this film. This cute, funny story takes you through innumerable situations and plot twists as it parodies the superficiality of modern pop culture in America and India. And it will bring tears of joy and laughter as you follow Ramy on his adventures toward fulfilling his boyhood dreams of dancing and singing in American movies. Each time you think the story will take you into familiar comedic ground, you will be delighted with an ironic twist in those expectations. But do keep intact your expectations of what makes great comedy: a brilliant story, intelligent writing, and a fast pace. Also keep open your eyes and ears for a cornucopia of wonderful sights and enchanting dialogue throughout this tale of boy meets girl. Each scene is as vivid in this respect as are the feast of vibrant colors painting the film (kudos to the cinematography). Not since "Hear My Song" or perhaps "Waking Ned Devine" has a comedy been this entirely original and engaging. This film does not break the mold; it casts a new one. Best of all it does not pander to the audience with crude jokes and crass situations. You feel as if you are approaching the world with the same wide-eyed innocence as does Rammy. Everything is perfect about this film, from the casting, to the plot, and to the comedic timing. Enjoy and laugh, or even dance and sing, it is impossible to resist!
