Beyonce is the President's daughter. Wealthy and spoilt, anything she wants she gets. This includes Raj. Beyonce meets Raj whilst out shopping and approaches him in a forward manner, showering him with compliments and then paying his bill before handing over her phone number.
Raj and Ciara, the poor orphan the girl who saves him are estranged after the hospital incident, although there is not a moment that he is not thinking about her, wanting to find her and thank her for saving his life. He does eventually find her and they begin dating. Whilst Beyonce is falling in love with Raj (pronounced Rush by most in the film), he at the same time is declaring his love for Ciara and even goes so far as to break her virginity. He also announces his intention to marry her, all the while juggling the two women.
Why are the two main female characters named after black American pop stars?
The deceit comes to light one day when Raj comes home with Ciara (to introduce her to the family) and finds Beyonce sitting on the sofa with his mother and sisters. He sees unperturbed by this sight, and with his arm cosily around Ciara he introduces her to all in the room as his fiancée and Beyonce as "The lady who has been so kind to us." Eiwoooooooooooo! The shock in Beyonce's face, to be treated as she were some kindly philanthropist.
Beyonce in a rage takes Raj out for "a word." Ciara steps outside shortly afterwards and hears the whole conversation. She now knows that Raj has been cheating on her and is highly distraught. In his defence he exclaims,
"I had to sleep with her. She came on too strong and I couldn't resist."
After being rejected by Raj Beyonce starts her mission to break up his relationship with Ciara by any means necessary.

I recently saw this "movie" in NYC at a friend's house...of course she's from Africa and the group found it funny and overall a good movie. i thought it was silly and thoughtless!!! Beyonce and Ciara should sue for the illegal use of their names just to sell a movie...stupid, stupid plot...a fake Romeo and Juliet!!! and i thought "Carmen, A Hip-Hop Opera" was bad! what in the hell????? these other countries need to do more to market their own celebrities and quit biting' off legitimate ones. i am neither Beyonce or Ciara fan but this movie makes even ME want to come... to their defense. Totally ridiculous
Forget the other stupid rating that was left. Yes I'm Nigerian, this movie is literally a ghallywood classic & showed the directors potential that Ghana/Nigerian movies have great potential. If i can edit the stupid description i would cause this movie is everything with romance and drama. I watched this move when i was 8 & just recently watched it to see if it hit home only cause i was young, but no the script is still bomb. Beautiful actor/actress & great storyline. Watch it, it literally has nothing to do with Beyoncé or Ciara at all, the Ghana director just likes the names so henceforth he used them, that's all.

The film is from 2006 come on, I grew up watching this in a Jamaican household and this film was a classic watching it when I was 8 to now 22 I just rewatched it obviously a whole different perspective, it's not about the graphics or acting which I think they did a gr8 job, but it's truly about the story of love, betrayal and greed so heartbreaking but that's most African movies and that's why WE LOVE THEM. Any bad reviews on this movie needs to go left you obviously know nothing 😂.
