I watched this on Netflix and it was ok but nothing to write about really. It is what I call a Netflix filler. :) A smart Indian girl goes into a Miss India America Pagent to get her boyfriend back and fails the whole movie is about success and failure and to a degree its good causes culturally these two aspects can affect young people and their family. It is fun light and a time filler anyone can really watch this flick.

I appreciate the directors efforts to make a film about the Indian-American experience that wasn't chock-full of cliches and the lead actress is very promising, but something was missing from this. It needed Kaur a bit more substance and a few more laughs.

Despite its faults, Miss India America is a funny and touching film, which manages to showcase a significant talent in Tiya Sircar, and poke around some cultural issues without becoming preachy or worthy.

The filmmakers seem to regard the narrative formula as a pretext for introducing positive depictions of Indian-American women to movie comedy, so this features lessons about embracing Indian cultural heritage as well as some genial Bollywood in-jokes.
