Salaam Namaste is a Bollywood feature filmed in Melbourne, ironically before the media highlighting and spate of attacks against some Indian students in Melbourne. Rather bitterly ironic that.Salaam Namaste introduced Tania Zaetta to Indian audiences and she parlayed her success into a few more Bollywood roles. If her name sounds familiar, she was co-host of Who Dares Wins.It was fun seeing some of the scenes around Melbourne and beaches, and you can imagine this is what Indian audiences wanted to see, and they lapped it up. Ironically though, I wonder how many Indians ended up studying in Melbourne because of Salaam Namaste, and who got caught up in the attacks.
Okay guys don't go losing your minds because I just compared this cute piece of crap to one of the best Hollywood films of 2004! The only resemblance that Salaam Namaste shares with Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is that it shows us a side of relationships that we don't usually see in films. And that's where the similarities end. That's the only way it gained 5 stars from me. I liked the way it addressed relationships especially in the 21st century. Somebody needs to send Preity Zinta a memo for her to stop accepting roles in which she portrays desperate women who have to con men to love them! I mean come on! A man doesn't need to have a degree in Neuro-surgery before he realises that he is in love, and Preity, pretty please, stop playing these tired stereotypes of women willing to try and give those men their love degrees! That said, Salaam Namaste is a good looking film about good looking people, living in a good looking country, have good looking jobs and good looking lives, until they meet and fall in love with each other. Then everything is not so good looking any more! Babes, why wasn't Salaam Namaste something original again? Sorry? Exaaaactly! :-D It was mediocre yaar! The out-takes were funnier and more entertaining than the movie!
i was frankly impressed at this one,coming from the yash raj stable.i may have been prejudiced by preity zinta's charms .but sharmila's boy i can't really stand usually.here he's made up to look a bit more macho,and he gives a thoroughly convincing performance as nikhil the architect turned celebrity chef nick.the theme is a bit passé for even the urban Indians in the metros,but the film doesn't come across stale at any point.all in all a feel-good family flick! the theme of pre-marital intimacy is definitely not new(see raj kapoor's bobby from1 1973,and aradhana,masoom etc.)but that does not stop this film from handling premarital sex and pregnancy,which non resident Indian populations are struggling to come to terms with.second generation Indians have adopted values and different value systems than their parents... the age-old theme again.but it is not just the gen-X Indian youth,the film addresses,but the whole question of love and responsibility,which saves it from being another run-of the mill potboiler
