Monsoon Wedding is the story of an Indian couple preparing
for the wedding of their only daughter Aditi (Vasundhara Das)
and almost everyone of importance in the clan has flown in
from around the world to be there. Melbourne even gets a mention!
Dad Lalit (Naseeruddin Shah) and mother Pimmi (Lillete Dubey)
are coping fairly well, despite the pressures - although the
bride-to-be is having doubts.
Well, big doubts really, as it is an arranged marriage to
a nice engineer and she is still in love with another (married)
man.
Throw into the mix the comical wedding organiser PK Dubey
(Vijay Raaz) and his own love life and a riotous pack of relatives
and you have a wonderful heart-warming movie.
The transfer is superb and the colours rich and gorgeous.
Sound-wise it is excellent.
Monsoon Wedding is one of those films you will really
take a shine to and just keeps getting better with every viewing.
Conclusion: 90% Extras: 70%.
