yuppie in New York fall in love on the
phone. But the movie apparently fails to
treat it smartly. What critics complained
of mostly is:
a) That you are unable to see why a vivacious
girl like Priya (Shriya) would be attracted
to a dull yuppie like Granger (Jesse Metcalfe)
b) Jesse Metcalfe, the hero, is an uninspiring
actor
c) It settles for easy, buffoonish comedy
d) Priya gives a speech about finding your
roots to her call centre colleagues, only
to abandon hers!
If you want to see a smarter, more successful
cross-cultural comedy and romance, check
out Outsourced.
Let's hope Shriya has a winner in Mira Nair's
upcoming movie.
