To put it nicely, I have really disliked most of N.Chandra's films and the only thing that attracted me to 'Y.M.I. Yeh Mera India' is the cast. Even the title gave the impression that this was going to be another sensationalist overtly patriotic flick. Yet, with names like Seema Biswas, Parizaad Zorabian, Rajpal Yadav, Rajit Kapur, Sarika, Parvin Dabas etc. how bad could it be? So, 'Y.M.I. Yeh Mera India' is actually so bad that it's funny. The narrative structure attempts to follow that of Paul Haggis's 'Crash'. Even though this film is not a rip-off, it did remind me of Haggis's movie. Thus, there are multiple stories that are all interlinked. It attempts to tackle the theme of prejudice and does a miserable job at it. The forced happy ending is hilarious and not for the 'happy' reason. Every one of these stories are so excessively exaggerated that they feel like a parody. Most of the 'characters' are caricatures. The horrendous voice-over obliged me to press the mute button. Given the poor level of writing, I can imagine how the actors might have struggled with acting or whatever. The tagline states 'Behind Every Bad News... There Is Good News...'. Well, this is just bad news.
