Monsoon Wedding: Film Review


The 2001 Bollywood film Monsoon Wedding narrates a father, Lalit Verma (played by Naseeruddin Shah) who is trying to arrange a wedding for his daughter, Aditi Verma (played by Vasundhara Das). This film correctly depicts Punjabi culture as Aditi has only known the man who she been arranged to marry for a couple of weeks. This film primarily describes several romantic crisis's not only in the planning of this wedding but also amongst family members and friends.
Quite honestly, I somewhat liked this film. I thought that the beginning was a little dull with all of the family dialogue, but I thought that as the movie went on and as the plot unfolded more and more it got better. I would recommend this colorful film to anyone who is looking for a good romance film.
