Here comes the bride… – but is she ready – in this romantic comedy from New Delhi native Mira Nair. Monsoon Wedding is set in contemporary India where bride to be Aditi has to contend with her traditional father Lalit Verma who loves his family dearly but does not have time for their “modern ways.” The Punjabi family travels from all over to enjoy the festivities surrounding the wedding. Aditi faces the dilemma of an arranged marriage and how it conflicts with her contemporary take on relationships. We also get to know the stories behind her family members who also have conflicts between past and present. During Vijay Raaz as P.K. Dube provides comic relief as the hysterical wedding planner who is busy working and wooing the family’s maid.
