Plot Synopsis

In this fictional comedy, Chris Kattan grows tired of being rejected as a leading man in Hollywood and accepts a starring role in the Bollywood film "Peculiar Dancing Boy." Fresh off the plane, Chris is flung into a world of sibling rivalry, cultural faux pas, a film with no funding, power hungry starlets, and a movie industry, as competitive and cutthroat as Hollywood, where dance moves are essential. This all leads to a pivotal moment when Chris finds himself making out with a horse. But all is not lost! In his quest to become Bollywood's leading man, Chris unexpectedly finds a great dance instructor (part Patrick Swayze, part Mr. Miyagi), trawls India's countryside for his leading lady, falls in love, and ultimately fulfills dreams he never even imagined. Facing culture clashes, language barriers and complex dance moves, Kattan will stop at nothing to conquer his destiny. Guest appearances by: Keanu Reeves; Jennifer Coolidge; David Alan Grier; Toby Huss; Andy Samberg and Chris' father Kip Kattan. Shown on IFC as a miniseries over three consecutive nights.
