No cliche is spared, but that doesn't mean this movie won't be fun for dance lovers. It's sort of Step Up meets Dirty Dancing meets Slumdog Millionaire.

For all of its pageantry, choreographed dance numbers and splashy photography, Heartbeats has all the qualities of a lackluster after school special.

Great dance scenes perk up so-so cross-cultural romance.

Striving for a fusion of Hollywood and Bollywood, dance music drama Heartbeats concocts a cross-cultural romance for an aspiring hip-hop dancer from LA and a Mumbai wedding entertainer. But the resulting masala is distinctly tepid.

I looked up the director & saw he wrote “Save the Last Dance” - thought it was cool he did another bi-racial romance but with an American girl & a hottie Indian boy! Would love to visit the locations in India they filmed in, especially that stone temple where the pre-wedding dancing took place. Great soundtrack too!

I loved it. This movie is a reminder of what is and really isn't at stake with life. Especially in these dark times, this movie fueled dreams I hope to carry out when the pandemic is over and hopefully find love too!

Beautiful. Amitash Pradhan is a fantastic actor and easy on the eyes. Lots of newcomers in this film.

As someone who has traveled to India numerous times, I was interested in seeing this film. However, after having seen it, I wish I hadn't. It's really awful. Amateurish acting, a ridiculous plot, and aimed at pre-teen girls, the dance sequences are the only redeeming thing about this Bollywood wannabe. Avoid.
