Feel proud I did not cave in and watch it online :)<br>That was the good part. Now for the not so good part. Was this movie worth the wait? I'm disappointed to say NO. What is it with desi movies made in the US that inherently have a cheap, amateur feel to it? I can even live with bad lighting and color schemes(Shabana Azmi's flesh tone goes from blue to beige in a single scene!!) But with all the hype surrounding this movie even before release, I had taken it for granted that we would at least get a movie that was on par with low budget films that are now made in India. Compared to this, a "Bheja Fry" and "President is Coming" looks like Avatar in terms of production quality!!<br>Sorry Manish, I am just disappointed having waited so long (see my earlier post too). You seemed to have got some really good actors involved - come to think of it, some amazing actors - but this this movie seems to be just a an excuse to cast yourself as an actor :( After 2 years of waiting for this movie, I finally saw it on the the officially released DVD. Feel proud I did not cave in and watch it online :)

I saw your film at the IFFLA festival in 2007?. I've been dying to get all my friends to see it as well as my non-Indian boyfriend. Particularly because I quote jokes from it and the reference is lost on everyone.

Is there some sort of email alert I can get when it comes out on DVD? Every few months I think about it and check online, but thats kind of getting old..
