Introduction

Have you ever thought of adding Indian elements into a Chinese New Year film? Hong Kong director Wai Ka Fai did it in his Himalaya Singh, released during the Chinese New Year. You will find Yoga, an Indian Princess and even the most exotic scenic spots from India in Himalaya Singh. This hilarious film, though released during the Chinese New Year, is certainly suitable for all seasons, just as Wai's previous Chinese New Year release Fantasia can be enjoyed at any times. You will no doubt be amused by all sorts of parodies in the film, from Mr. Bean to Kill Bill.

Singh (Ronald Cheng) is born and raised in the Himalayas. A naive yoga master, he is ordered by his parents to join the competition hosted by the King of Yoga to fight for the King's daughter. On his way, Singh meets Tally (Cherrie Ying) who falls for him because of his Yoga skills. Failing to win his love, Tally wants to convert Singh into a bad guy – if she cannot get him, no one else will. At the same time, two Hong Kong tourists (Francis Ng and Sean Lau) are suffering from amnesia and are instructed to take part in the competition as well. Laughter starts to explode in this most incredible fight for the Indian beauty...

　　Singh (Ronald Cheng) is borne and grown up in Himalayas and has reached the ultimate stage in Yoga. He goes to participate the India Beauty's husband-to-be contest. He meets the wanna-be-married Tally (Cherrie In). Tally proposed to induce Singh to be a rotten, so India Beauty has a bad husband. Uncle Panic (Lau Ching Wan) goes traveling to India with his two nephews (Shine). Uncle Brave (Francis Ng) who is one of the tourists has absolutely opposite character. Uncle Panic bumps into several India robbers who hypnotize him and was brought into the Journey Of Illusion by The Peacock (Cecilia Chang).

　　Uncle Brave and the two nephews gulp down India Magical Oil accidentally and lose their memory. King of Yoga recognizes Uncle Brave is Singh mistakenly. Dramatically, Singh, Uncle Panic and Uncle Brave fight in the contest. Who can win? Or is it only a dream?
