A suddenly single bachelor, an oddly attractive neighbor and a popular women's magazine are the ingredients of this delicious romance that pays homage to classic Bollywood cinema while spinning a modern love story that is uniquely its own. From the director of "Chutney Popcorn" and the writer of "Monsoon Wedding," and starring Genie award-winner Roshan Seth and Academy Award nominee Carol Kane, "Cosmopolitan" mixes the bittersweet comedy of real life with the intoxicating magic of rediscovered love. It is based on a short story by Akhil Sharma and premiered on PBS in June on the series Indepedent Lens.
