Cheeni Kum (literally, less sugar) is a Bollywood film being made by advertising executive and debutant director Balkrishnan. The story is being touted as a sarcastic love story.

Synopsis
The boy is actually a 64 year old man, Buddhadev Gupta (Amitabh Bachchan). The girl is a 34 year old woman, Nina Verma (Tabu).

Buddhadev Gupta is the 64 year old chef cum owner of London's top Indian restaurant. He lives with his 85 year old mother and his only friend and confidante is his 9 year old neighbour - Sexy. Buddhadev Gupta is an arrogant, egoistic, pompous man with a singular passion in life - cooking. A confirmed bachelor who has never been in love.

Until...Nina Verma walks into his restaurant and life.

Nina Verma is a beautiful, charming, Indian woman. Cool, calm, quiet, always smiling, but independent and strong willed.

Two extremes...in age, character and attitude. Meet and against all odds fall in love. They decide to get married. And, like any Indian man, Buddhadev Gupta respectfully comes to ask Nina's father, a true Gandhian, living in Delhi, for her hand.

Sweet...Just one problem...

Mr. Omprakash Verma (Paresh Rawal), Nina's father is 58 years old 6 years younger than Buddhadev Gupta, his would be son-in-law.

Cheeni kum...A romantic, musical comedy!!

Sounds interesting, wonder if there will be a good chemistry between Amitabh Bachchan and Tabu.

When I visit this site, it played the song as an intro. Although I do not understand a word of it, it sounded pretty darn good

Can anyone tell me what is the name of this song, who's the singer, and where can I download this song (perhaps in mp3 format) ?

Thanks!!!

Nevermid. Got it!

Maestro Ilaiyaraaja have composed the songs for this movie. He is genius and a veteran, but people say this is not his greatest of works, he has composed a lot other much beautiful songs, I am one of his fans. This is the title song with the same name as the film it is sung by Shreya Goshal. When I opened the web-site I was also taken by surprise it is a beautiful song no doubt.

Seems like such a sweet movie. I really wanna see this one. Weirdbut Tabu and Amitabh's chemistry looks really good
