Bonus Pop Culture Bit: "Taj" scene from  Salaam-e-Ishq. In this film with six interlocking love stories, an American woman comes to India to meet the Indian man who ran away from her. Meanwhile, a taxi driver dreams of meeting the perfect. Because of language confusion, the taxi driver takes her to the Taj Mahal instead of the Taj Hotel. She's upset. He tries to help. Eventually they find her "fiance" -- at his wedding -- but twoo wuv wins the day. It's a Bollywood film with a Bollywood ending. (And it's mostly in Hindi -- deal with it. )
