Unsuitable Girls archiveA witty comedy abut a young Asian woman, Chumpa Chameli, who as she finds herself in her mid-twenties is looking for love and searching for Mr Right...in all the wrong circumstances! Pressurised by her mother, she is mindful of the clock-ticking. Chumpa knows time is running out - she needs to get her man and organise the biggest and best Asian wedding East London has ever seen. AND SOON... But what about her own ambitions to move from a secretary on the dead-beat Concrete Weekly to far more glamorous job of Bollywood correspondent on a glossy show biz magazine? What about her dreams? Chumpa whiles away the hours at work with dreams of what might be and hilarious dream-like dance sequences ensue where Hollywood meets Bollywood...Will Chumpa settle for Ashok, her boyfriend of the last few years or dare she stand her ground and follow her heart? Follow where her heart leads her in this screwball comedy with a soundtrack featuring classic Hollywood numbers to the new Asian underground sound...Dolly Dhingra brings the romantic comedy bang up to date in this will-she-won't-she tale!
