Loins of Punjab
Loins of Punjab Presents is a wonderful movie directed by Manish Acharya. It is set in a hotel, that is hosting "Desi Idol", based on American Idol. The dialogs are witty and edgy without falling into sterotypes.
Shabana Azmi is great as a bitchy socialite intent on winning the contest at any cost. Turbanotorious BDG, played by Ajay Naidu is funny with his rap lyrics and stuck on turban. The relationships between Michael Raimondi (Josh Cohen) and Ayesha Dharker are richly textured as is the love between Manish Acharya and the beautiful Seema Rahmani (Sania Rahman). The quiet Ishitta Sharma (Preeti Patel) acts well along with her Patel clan.
