Mr. Wickham: [Darcy and Lalita have just saved Lakhi from Wickham, Lalita slaps him and walks off] Lalita, it was always you.

[Lakhi slaps him and walks off]
Mrs. Bakshi: I will end up living in that rotten house, full of spinsters with no grandchildren.
Mr. Kholi: You know what they say. No life without wife.
Lalita Bakshi: You should be stirring your husband's dinner not trouble.
Lalita Bakshi: I though we got rid of imperialists like you!

Mr. Kholi: Such small caterpillars that turned into beautiful butterflies! And so like you... Madame butterfly

Bride & Prejudice short comments

The plot is copied from "Pride and Prejudice", but it is not rigid at all, but very natural. The adaptation is just right, and it incorporates Indian singing and dancing well, and there are several highlights. PS: Darcy here is also very handsome! ! ! &PS: The end credits show that the crew is happy.
