this is one of the funniest Indian comedy film after Hera Pheri in 2000.directed by same director of Hera Pheri Priyadarshan's Garam Masala is full of entertainment.Hot Spice is about 2 friends who work for a magazine company as photographers one of them Sam gets promoted & goes to USA & second one Mac,s luck changes & he lives a cool life & dating 3 girls at once. but when SAM comes back things go out of control & fun starts.The Cast:Akshay Kumar,John Abraham,Rajpal Yadav,Rimi Sen,Asrani,Paresh Rawal,Neha Dhupia,Nargis Bagheri,Neetu Chandra & Daisy Bhopana everyone was amazing in there performance.if this film came out in 90s i don't know what would the people think but it came at the right time i think and its beautifully shot on great locationsthe soundtrack is superb all the songs including kiss me baby the chemistry of actors is so awesome as they do funny things,a lot of people have been asking where was this filmed so let me tell this was filmed in India and Mauritius,it is totally fun to watch for me this film is gold comedy it came in 2005 now so many years have passed and i am still hooked on to it specially the dialogs are Mindblowing.My Rating For Garam Masala(Hot Spice) 2005 Is 10/10.A Must See Film.

Watched on Hulu (far too many commercials!) so it broke the pacing but even still, it was like watching a really bad buddy movie from the early sixties. Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis where both parts are played by Jerry Lewis. If I were Indian, I'd protest the portrayal of all males as venal and all women as shrews. They cheated for the music videos for western sales and used a lot of western models so the males could touch them I usually enjoy Indian films a lot but this was a major disappointment, especially for a modern Indian film. The story doesn't take place in India (the uncle keeps referring to when Mac will return to India) but I can't find out where it is supposed to be happening.

If you've seen Chasing Papi, then you have seen Garam Masala. Well, except for the songs of course, but hey! The only good thing about this version is that there's John Abraham and Akshaye Kumar as eye candy for us girls. The Plot stunk, Neha Dhupia was so wasted in this that if you blink you might just miss her. And forget Rimii Sen, Bollywood's lucky mascot is barely in the film not that she is much of an actress anyway but it was just ridiculous to see such a pivotal character do so little with the screen time they gave her.Anyhow, to the plot; Mac and Sam (Kumar and Abraham respectively) are womanising fashion photographers who are constantly in competition with each other. The difference between them is that Mac is engaged to Anjali(played by Rimii Sen). Yet he (Mac) still finds time to battle Sam for the affections of their co-worker Maggie (played by Neha Dhupia). One day, Sam turns up lucky and wins the industry's most coveted award and as a result is promoted at work, given a raise and even sent on assignment to America. He leaves Mac in his dust, which devastates his former partner in crime who literally gave Sam everything a friend could ever ask for in terms of loyalty and support. Mac's depressed state leads him to drink mindlessly until he is rescued by his former boss who gives him a new lease on life. He becomes a house-sitter and one day gets in over his head. He hires a servant (played by Paresh Rawal) into the house he is watching and goes out on the town to woo three separate women, all of them air hostesses. Sweety, Puja and Deepti (played by Neetu Chandra, Nargis Bagheri, & Daisy Bopanna respectively). When Mac promises to marry each one, Sam returns from America to add some spice into the crazy soup of a soap opera Mac has cooked up and both men try to keep all three women from finding out about each other.

This movie was a fantastic comedy. It had a lot of comedians star in it like Akshay Kumar,Rajpal Yadav,Paresh Raval and John Abraham.Rimi Sen was good at playing Akshay Kumars wife and so were all the air hostesses. Mr Hot as Mac (Akshay Kumar) and Mr cool as Sam (John Abraham) are two fashion photographers who like the same girl Maggie (Neha Dupia). When John Abraham cheats on his work he becomes Akshay Kumars senior and Akshay Kumar gets really jealous because his flat has to be given to John Abraham and Neha Dupia starts liking John more. Akshay Kumar wants to be better than John Abraham so he finds a flat and he is going out with three different girls (Nitu Chandra,Nargis Bagheri,Daisy Boppana).
