Ramji Londonwaley (2005) is a Hindi language film starring R. Madhavan in the lead role. Amitabh Bachchan guest stars. It is a remake of the Tamil film, Nala Damayanthi. The film was previously titled Bawarchi.
Therefore, Ramji plans to go to London and work as a cook for a multi-millionaire dollar London-based Indian businessman-family. The arrangement is that Ramji will have to send part of his salary as a compensation for the dowry he owes.
Unfortunately on the day Ramji arrives at the employer's door-step, the millionaire who hired him is very sick, and eventually passes away before signing Ramji's paperwork- leaving him jobless .
Desperate to stay and earn (as he had promised his sister's dowry), he starts working illegally (without work-permit) as an expert Indian chef in an Indian restaurant owned by an NRI --Mr. Badri- who has one wife and a handicapped son. Eventually, due to his good manners, friendliness and expert skills he wins the family''s heart.
As the restaruant becomes lucrative due to Ramji's excellent cullinary skills, the police / the immigration police are on his heels.
Jai Kapoor, Badri's cunning lawyer friend, explains that the only way out is marriage with a British citizen, and suggests Ramji to marry his own girlfriend Samira!
Badri also convinces Ramji to do 'marriage of convinience' so that he can win this case against the Police who have filed a case against his restaurant business (hiring illegal immigrants).
Ramji reluctantly agrees for a "fake" marriage with Jai's girlfriend Samira, and they get married over the weekend inside a church (so that paperwork comes faster).
For all these gimmicks, the lawyer charges heavy fees from Mr. Badri and deposits them in the joint account of his with Samira.
The police become more and more suspicious that this is a fake marriage and refer the matter to the consulate. The embassy invites both Ramji and Samira for interview for which they start preparing by getting to know eachother better.
By this time, Ramji finds out more about the cunning shrewd character of Jai (the lawyer) in a chance co-incidental meeting at the bus stop with Jai's ex -wife. The lady explains how Jai had promised her so many things and then suddenly deserted her and her son- for which she will seek revenge on him for abandoning his family. Ramji explains this all to Samira and Samira meets with Jai's ex-wife also.
In the meanwhile, constant stalking by the police forces the Samira and Ramji to stay/live together to avoid detection by authority. Samira is deeply troubled with rural mannerisms of Ramji. To break the ice, Ramji cooks delicacies for Samira and wins her heart. In time, gradually, Samira also realises that Jai is merely fooling around with her life and doesn't really love her....
Meanwhile, Ramji is not able to send the dowry installments as promised and his sister's in-laws throw her out of the house. Ramji's sister despearately calls Ramji and Samira answers the call- and handles this situation smartly by sending all the money received for the fake marriage in their joint account to her and makes sure her long-time friend takes care of her.
Unfortunately, in their final interview with the consulate, Ramji answers more than he is asked at the immigration office then is forced to return to India ( due to being illegal worker).
However, as Ramji is preparing to be deported a good news comes - Ramji wins a cooking competition (which Samira had enlisted him for) and thus, wins more money and employment opportunities at Ritz Hotel.
Ramji replies to Samira that he had promised his sister he will return to attend her marriage, so he has to return to India.
After a year, things quieten down, and then Samira eventually comes to meet Ramji in his local village, and they decide to marry according to local Indian ritual and customs.
The movie ends on a happy note when the couple start a restaurant together and invite Actor Amitabh Bachhan to inaugurate after which they all live happily ever after...

Mckeeisation of bollywood
I was surprised to find
that the movie, with a pacey and slick script, is actually good! This
is hollywoodisation of bollywood...more precisely, this is Mckeeisation
of bollywood. Inspired (no pun intended) by their Hollywood
counterparts, the Indian scriptwriters have also started taking cues
from Robert Mckee - the screen writing guru. This story has a deep
imprint of Mckee in a clear and structured manner- inciting incident,
negation of negation, plot points, resolution etc etc.
On the face of it, this development would appear as a progressive step which indeed it is for a while BUT it also contains seeds of quick stagnation . The Hollywood movies have long lost their souls and now appear very predictable and plastic- thanks to an overdose of Mckee. The same may happen to the new wave Indian movies if they keep religiously following American structuralism without realising the flip side of it. Indian writers should see to it that in an attempt to break free from bollywood formula, they do not get trapped in the Hollywood (mckee) formula. Individual creativity and instincts is all one should follow while making a movie.
