English Summary:

Bride and Prejudice is a 2004 romantic drama film directed by Gurinder Chadha. The screenplay by Chadha and Paul Mayeda Berges is a Bollywood-style adaptation of Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. It was filmed primarily in English, with some Hindi and Punjabi dialogue. 

Based on Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, the film revolves around Lalita Bakshi (Aishwarya Rai), a young woman living in Amritsar, India with her father (Anupam Kher), her mother (Nadira Babbar), her older sister Jaya (Namrata Shirodkar) and her two younger sisters, Lakhi (Peeya Rai Chowdhary) and Maya (Meghna Kothari). Mrs. Bakshi is determined to marry off all her daughters to respectable and wealthy men.

The family is invited to a friend's (Shivani Ghai) wedding ceremony, where Lalita meets Will Darcy (Martin Henderson), a handsome and wealthy American who is a long-time friend of the British-Indian barrister Balraj (Naveen Andrews), and Balraj's sister Kiran (Indira Varma).

Balraj is instantly attracted to Jaya and likewise, Darcy is attracted to Lalita. During the reception, Balraj coaxes Darcy to dance with Lalita while Balraj dances with Jaya. Lalita mistakes Darcy's discomfort and awkward jokes as a sign of his intolerance towards Indian culture so she quickly takes a dislike to him. After the wedding reception, Balraj invites Jaya to Goa with him, Darcy and Kiran. The Bakshi parents agree so long as Lalita accompanies her sister.

Hungarian Summary:

Az egész azzal kezdődik, hogy egy szerény indidai faluban az elszánt Mrs Bakshi úgyy dönt, hogy férjet talál mind a négy gyönyörű lányának. Mire az okos és keményfejű Lalita kijelenti, hogy kizárólag szerelemből hajlandó férjhez menni, a frászt hozva ezzel az anyjára. Aztán Lalita találkozik a gazdag amerikai Will Darcyval és azonnal szikrázni kezd köztük a levegő. De szerelem ez, vagy gyűlölet? Lalita egy arrogáns kaliorniai sznobnak látja Darcyt, míg ő a faluszépe, aki Darcy szerint nem tud semmit a világról. De a végzet ellen nem tehetnek semmit: a képzelet, a pletyka, a tévedések vígjátéka egyre jobban behálózza őket... míg megtörik a büszkeség, legyőzetik a balítélet és végre győz a szerelem.
