Der Super-Guru (2002)
Tanzlehrer Ramu, den John Travolta und Olivia Newton-John faszinieren, verlässt auf der Suche nach Ruhm und Reichtum seine indische Heimat Mumbai und versucht sein Glück in New York. Eigentlich will er Schauspieler werden, doch zunächst landet er als Kellner in einem indischen Restaurant, bevor er nach einer Serien von Missgeschicken und der Bekanntschaft mit einem weiblichen Pornostar über Nacht unversehens zu einem von Anhängerinnen umringten und verehrten Sex-Guru avanciert.
