"Green Card Fever" is the story of Murali (Vikram Dasu), a young immigrant from India who overstays his visa. As he is forced to make decisions about whom to trust, he naively relies on his newfound friends in the "Land of Dreams," and a comical and poignant sequence of adventures ensues.
He is told that "the fastest way to get anything done in America is to sue somebody" - and is led to believe that he can obtain a green card by suing his lawyer Omjeet (Deep Katdare). Soon, however, he finds himself being manipulated by an underworld of immigrant taxi drivers and lawyers, torn between the beautiful girl he is falling in love with (Purva Bedi) and the confronting prospect of returning home to India.
This new films from first time director Bala Rajeshkaruni reunites the award-winning cast of "American Desi," and features an original soundtrack by Pete Sears (of "Jefferson Airplane" and "Hot Tuna") and includes a new song from rock legend Al Stewart ("Year of the Cat," "Time Passages").
Green Card Fever is both a romantic comedy and drama. It provides moving and often hilarious peek into the lives of legal and illegal immigrants in America. |

Provides Greencard Insight |

The movie provides insight into the greencard process, how it works, and how people abuse or cheat the system. It also shows how Indians may crowd into apartments. I had heard of Hispanics doing this, but this is the first time I was aware of Indians doing it as well. It has several plot twist and turns to keep you interested. |
