The energy is infectious': why Bride and Prejudice is my feelgood movie

A cross-cultural, British-and-Bollywood-meets-Hollywood take on Austen's most famous novel, the film is pure joy a riot of original musical numbers, colourful costumes, chaos, culture clashes and, of course, romance. You may think it wouldn't work, but it does. Released after the huge success of Bend It Like Beckham, Chadha spent two years filming Bride &Prejudice across three continents. It's a homage to the Bollywood films she grew up watching with a modern, western twist a cinematic expression of her hybrid identity.
