Loved this film. Would not normally choose "rom-com" genre but really enjoyed this. Great cast, many laughs, very colourful, and interesting exploration of the approach to choosing a life partner. A good evening of entertainment. THANK YOU |

I really enjoyed this film. It showed a very light hearted side to a tradition that is not so well understood. |

Brilliant! My kind of rom com. A sensitive and yet humorous exploration of cultural differences, attitudes towards marriage and the meaning of love. |

Very insightful about the pressure of mixing different cultures. But so lovely to have a happy ending!! |

Very colourful - and amusing. Bollywood's version of Bridget Jones & Love Actually! |

Great to have a 'feel good film' at the end. It highlighted the complexities of living in a country with a different cultural background. Great choice. Thank you. |

Great film. Family seniors can be a challenge! Beliefs and religion too... Because something may be considered different it is not necessarily right or wrong, it is just different! We now live in a rapidly changing world. |

A feed good film - just what the doctor ordered! Excellent cast. And the happy ending was realistic too! |

A bit of a predictable rom-com structure without the shine of a Love Actually or Four Weddings but pleasant enough for a few laughs on a Monday evening. |

Interesting to think about arranged marriages. Great fun but stereotypical. Lily James sweet & saccharine as usual. We knew she & Kaz were meant for each other. |

It was fine. A bit of a fairy story for grown ups. I enjoyed it though. It was well done but not really my 'sort of film'. |
