Nargis would be seen playing the part of an American Journalist who travels to India to write a rendition of a Bollywood wedding.
I took this offer up because I felt connected to the character. I have a similar story. The character is American, but also has a multi-ethnic heritage. She is sort of forced to connect with her roots, and it becomes a life-changing experience for her. I feel lucky to be able to work in Bollywood and now in Hollywood too. My life has been filled with coincidences. Bollywood was one, and has been great. But I think, in my heart, I want to also do projects at home (USA).Nargis Fakhri, Actor
