Monsoon Wedding is a 2001 comedy-drama film directed by Mira Nair, written by Sabrina Dhawan, and starring Naseeruddin Shah, Lillete Dubey, Shefali Shah and Vasundhara Das. The story depicts romantic entanglements during a traditional Punjabi Hindu wedding in Delhi. Dhawan wrote the first draft of the screenplay in a week while in Columbia University's MFA film program.[11] Although set entirely in New Delhi, it was internationally co-produced between companies in India, the United States, Italy, France and Germany.

Monsoon Wedding premiered in the Marché du Film section of the 2001 Cannes Film Festival[12][13] and went on to win the Golden Lion at the Venice International Film Festival and receive a Golden Globe Award nomination while grossing over $30 million internationally at the box office.[10] A musical based on the film premiered on Broadway in April 2014.[14] In 2017, IndieWire named it the 19th best romance of the 21st century.[15]
