Basmati Blues | Rotten Tomatoes (2025)

Audience Reviews

known s i would give 0.01/10 as rating"Basmati Blues" is one of the most offensive and poorly made movies I've ever seen. As an Indian, I found it not only insulting but incredibly ignorant. The film is filled with ridiculous stereotypes that are outdated and offensive, making a mockery of Indian culture. The portrayal of Indian people is shallow, and it seems like the director has no clue about the real India or the people who live here. The setting is a cartoonish version of India that exists only in the minds of those who have never bothered to learn about the country. This film is not just a disappointment; it’s a disgrace. It does more harm than good by perpetuating harmful stereotypes. The creators should be ashamed for producing such a tasteless and culturally insensitive movie. Avoid this film at all costs if you have any respect for genuine cultural representation. Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/01/24 Full Review Audience Member Revolting story & vacuous dialogue - avoid this like dysentery. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/04/24 Full Review Geke g Very decent plow-twist and screenplay. Deserves 5 star. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/27/24 Full Review Audience Member Quite an interesting plot. Starts as a simple little journey to make sure things are okay and then you find yourself immersed in the love story and the things that people will do for money. It's a beautiful experience and reminds you that there are good people in the world despite the overwhelming amount of bad and that people can change things if they truly want to. It honestly made me feel good and want to contribute more to help the world. Yes, it's corny, but it's truly a breath of fresh air in the sad world we live in. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member I only gave this film 5 stars because there weren't any more to give! I've seen nearly all Brie Larson's films & this one is EASILY my favorite! Just to hear her lovely singing voice is a real treat, and the simple yet charming "fish out of water" story line is thoroughly entertaining! Add to that a superb supporting cast, and you have a true gem of a film, sure to please the entire family! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review roy m Why was this made?
