Salaam Namaste

Although many Indians live and work abroad, they still face the age-old dilemma of whether to allow family loyalties to shape their romantic and professional futures, or to strike out on their own in pursuit of a more personal vision. Saif Ali Khan and Preity Zinta--staring together in their fourth film--play Nihil "Nicki" Arora and Ambar "Ambi" Malhotra, Indians living in Australia who meet, quarrel, and inevitably become romantically involved. Finding a partner, discovering one's true feelings, and attaining success in a fulfilling career are perennially resonant themes, and ensure SALAAM NAMASTE's universal appeal.
