Ganga counters that she loathes the American immorality. When Ganga meets him there he shows his true colors and admits how much he hates India when he is drunk. Furthermore Kishorilal charges Rajiv with taking Ganga with him to Las Vegas, where he attends another party. Rajiv’s aunt tells Kishorilal about it and he sends Arjun away immediately with the excuse that he is promoted. Consequently Ganga organizes a surprise party with Arjun’s friends, but the new close friendship between her and Arjun does not stay unnoticed. On the next day it is Arjun’s birthday, but Rajiv refuses to go to him and wish him a happy birthday, because he does not see Arjun as that important. Arjun still fights his feelings for Ganga and tries to convince her to stay engaged with Rajiv and to try to change him when they are married. Arjun tries to justify his brother’s behavior with the American lifestyle, but Ganga makes clear that Rajiv cannot make her happy, because she wants real love. After Rajiv stands up Ganga for his girlfriend, Ganga confronts Arjun with his lies. In addition she cannot understand why Rajiv’s family treats Arjun like a servant, when he actually belongs to them and is always loyal and friendly. Ganga is shocked and confused after Arjun got jealous of another man, who danced with her, and discovered that Rajiv had a sexual relationship to another woman. Slowly Ganga begins to realize that Rajiv is not the person Arjun told her, as he does not treat her well and is only interested in partying. Her only friend is Arjun and the two start to forge close links with each other. When Ganga arrives there she is very disappointed to find out about Rajiv’s family denying her traditional dress and manners. The engagement takes place in India, but Ganga is asked to visit America before the wedding. In the end Rajiv and Ganga both agree to the marriage. He lies to Ganga about Rajiv’s character and qualities and promises her that Rajiv is a good person. Although he already knows he has feelings for Ganga, he tries to make sure the wedding takes place. At first he does not know the Indian norms and rites and has trouble to integrate. After setting the record straight they get along pretty well, but Arjun’s deviant Western view on things makes it difficult for him to behave properly. In the beginning he unintentionally offends her and her family and the whole plan hangs in the balance. Pardes is a typical Bollywood show with drama, emotion, romance, comedy and some action – 90% movies of the indian movies are entirely the same. Arjun as a very loyal person leaves everything behind and flies to India to meet Ganga. The businessman already suspects that it will not be easy for him to convince Rajiv to marry Ganga, so he asks his fosterling Arjun for help. Kishorilal hopes that Ganga can give Rajiv an understanding of the Indian values, so that these are preserved in his Americanized family.
Consequently Ganga is promised as a bride for his son, Rajiv, who is already westernized. Even though Ganga’s younger sisters try to impress Kishorilal, because they are fascinated by the Western world and want to win the man over, Kishorilal is only interested in Ganga. Ganga and Kishorilal immediately feel connected through their love for the Indian culture and its traditions. Pardes deals with the love story of Arjun (Shah Rukh Khan) and Ganga (Mahima Chaudhry) and reveals the contrast between Indian and American culture.ĭuring his visit in India the wealthy Indian businessman Kishorilal (Amrish Puri), who lives in America, gets to know Ganga, the eldest daughter of his old conservative friend Suraj (Alok Nath).
