Didn't come here to comment until I noted the following ignorant comment: "Is there some new place where England, Jamaica, India and China meet?" For the record, the local accent is Trinidadian (not Jamaican.) Also, there is nothing weird about Chinese representation; there is such a thing as multiculturalism in some places, of which Trinidad is an example.
I quite enjoyed this movie. As with many feel-good movies, some of the plot is predictable. The casting was very well done for the most part. I think they did an excellent job of integrating the music without wearing down the script. It's a nice change from mainstream Hollywood-type scripts. Really happy to be living in a time where there is greater access to diversity in film.

Plot summary
Anita Panchouri is the doting daughter of a deep in debt Indian businessman. She's on the verge of willingly marrying a wealthy suitor when she meets a romantic rasta singer, Lee de Leon who's drafted last minute to perform at her engagement party. There are sparks, naturally, but Anita refuses to acknowledge them, focusing instead on playing matchmaker to a constantly bickering, secretly-in-love couple: her sarcastic cousin Poorvi and her underachieving future brother-in-law, Partiv. Of course, no one can see these sworn enemies are made for each other...no one except Lee who vows to unite the two. Anita is skeptical that Lee, the newly arrived stranger, can pull off a feat she's been trying to accomplish for years. When he succeeds in transforming the fighters into love birds through a little creative Cupidry, however, Anita's moved by Lee's romantic gifts and decides she wants to be with him, just once, before she enters a loveless marriage for the sake of her father's future. But Anita's designs on Lee don't go unnoticed. Nikhil, the territorial younger brother of Anita's fiancé, picks up on the attraction, especially when Lee unexpectedly switches his set to sing a love song at a big soca show. And when Nikhil learns the true state of the dismal Panchouri finances the family's been hiding, he sets about a plan of revenge that will destroy Anita and her father and crush her chance at true love. Set in beautiful Trinidad and Tobago, BAZODEE is a Bollywood style Caribbean musical about being true to yourself and honest in love at all costs.

Nice feel-good movie set in Trinidad & Tobago
This movie makes me want to visit Trinidad & Tobago!!!
This is a feel good love story. Loved the fusion of cultures and loved the music. Hope to see more movies like this.
This Movie Will Leave You Bazodee with a Smile
The characters of Bazodee have you laughing from beginning to end. A colorful and festive romantic comedy with some high tempo Soca beats to make you wiggle in your seat. There are beautiful shots of Trinidad and Tobago throughout the movie. It's definitely a promo for tourism and Caribbean exposure. It's a simple and predictable story line but the local Trini characters keep you glued to every word that they say with their deadpan humor. Or should I say sing...that accent is so sweet! Overall it's marvelous mix to see an East and West cast collaborate to create a successful and groundbreaking movie just as the lead characters create a soulful unity themed plot regardless of race and social status. If only this can transcend into reality but it definitely a positive start. Unity through musical entertainment! Bazodee all the way! ~Atevac
