    A disgruntled American doctor goes to India to find enlightenment. Not one of Swayze's better films but I enjoyed storyline about the rickshaw driver and his family.

    Patrick Swayze's character and story are a bit contrived, but the film is saved by Om Puri's superb performance as a fearful farmer who becomes a hero.

    I normally am not a fan, but Patrick Swayze is awesome in this film. It is a sweet, enjoyable movie with sadness and joy.

    The movie that signaled the end of Patrick Swayze's post-Dirty Dancing popularity. A boring and trite film.
