Mari Gold actress Ali Larter photos
With the success of past Hollywood hits such as "Bend It Like Beckham" and "Monsoon Wedding," more film companies are trying to merge Indian and western cultures into a movie. "Marigold" writer Willard Carroll, known for "Playing by Heart" and "The Brave Little Toaster," makes a considerable attempt at bringing the two cultures together in this campy love story.
Ali Larter (alter ego Niki Sanders from "Heroes") stars as the self-centered American B-movie actress Marigold Lexton, whose career is fading. Lexton loses her luggage and is trapped in Goa, India, without a return ticket when the movie she was to star in loses its Hollywood financing and shuts down. To try to earn her way back home, she takes a small part in an Indian musical, and starts to fall in love with the choreographer, Prem (Salman Khan).
