Nina's Heavenly Delights hints at better-simmered versions of similar dishes.

A lightweight and sentimental exercise that succeeds at little except maybe inspiring the viewer to go out and find a decent curry.

This combination of melodrama, comedy, music and romance eventually falls under the weight of its endlessly stereotypical characters, dialogue and situations.

This movie's heart is in the right place, which is one way of saying it's terrible.

A cloying blend of Bollywood sentiment and Amélie whimsy, Nina’s Heavenly Delights is a lesbian-foodie fairy tale that keeps its appetites well under control.

Making her feature debut after several documentaries, Parmar displays rookie jitters with excessive cutting and camera moves whose restlessness occasionally recalls Mumbai soap operas.

Veena Sood plays Nina's mother with magisterial presence. But Conn overacts just as much as the impetuous Nina overreacts.
