Director Gurinder Chadha and the team that created Bend It Like Beckham put an entirely different spin on Jane Austen's story of spirited courtship - Bollywood style! Bride & Prejudice shifts the comic tale of a witty young woman trying to find a suitable husband, to a cross-cultural setting that spans 21st century India, London and America. The tale begins in a modest Indian village when the determined Mrs. Bakshi (Anupam Kher) sets out to find marriage matches for her four beautiful daughters while there’s a lavish wedding party in town. Right away, the smart and headstrong Lalita (Aishwarya Rai) announces she will only marry for love, giving her mother nightmares. Then Lalita meets the wealthy American Will Darcy (Martin Henderson) and sparks immediately fly. But is it love or hate? Darcy comes off to Lalita as an arrogant Californian snob. Lalita looks to Darcy like a small-town Indian beauty who knows nothing of the world. Alternately enchanted by and suspicious of one another, Lalita and Darcy nearly fall prey to assumptions, gossip and a comedy of errors... until pride is humbled and prejudice overcome so that love can triumph.
