A prickly American actress (Ali Larter) falls under the spell of India's film industry.

Critics Consensus

Marigold attempts the difficult trick of combining Bollywood movies and American rom-coms -- and ends up with an awkward blend that will satisfy fans of neither.

[Willard] Carroll tries to be warm and affectionate towards Indian culture and Bollywood, but the film is riddled with clichés.

Larter is just about average. Salman hasn't looked worse, with a plastic smile, a faraway look and a fake, incomprehensible accent that forces one to demand subtitles.

Bollywood fans will dismiss the mishmash as the work of an American director 'slumming' in a genre outside his own culture, and Western audiences unfamiliar with Hindi-language masala movies will find the whole thing puzzling.

It seems the only thing worse than a faulty culture shock comedy with zero charm is a faulty culture shock comedy with zero charm starring Ali Larter.

It's all dizzying, but what a delight.

While the plot was a bit contrived and adolescent I felt it was never intended to compete with the beautiful music & dance anyway. I bought the movie's soundtrack album simply for the joyous and uplifting harmony that is attendant with Indian music of this genre. The dance sequences in the movie are quite enjoyable for the same reason.

American Rom-Com meets bollywood. Despite not expecting much from this movie, I found it quite heart warming with a good slushy ending. It put a nice smile on my face. Worth a watch.

A fine "feel-good" movie but a bit to cliche and predictable.

Not sure what I expected, but it wasn't bad. Not great-but enjoyable once I gave it a chance. I will take any reason to see India. :)
