Product Description

Expecting to study at Berkeley and become a yuppie, handsome Vikram Gowariker arrives from Bombay to find his host family has moved, he's not registered at the school and he has nowhere to stay. With his money and visa running out, it looks like he's out of luck. But things are not always what they seem - especially in the heyday of San Francisco's punk era. To his surprise, Vikram falls in love with the vibrant city and with Sue (Heidi Carpenter), a feisty bohemian artist working at a local movie theater. Dodging INS agents, the couple resorts to desperate measures, including a hilariously bungled burglary and an impromptu curbside wedding. It all ends happily with a trip to India and a romantic dance number right out of a Bollywood musical. Bollywood style is one of the fastest-growing popular genres today!

Okay, I directed this movie, so my opinion is skewed. To be honest, it's in no way perfect but it is interesting and is one of the very early examples of modest, indie, cross-cultural stories. I say: Check it out!
