CENTURY CITY, Calif. – When two people on opposite sides of the globe connect, they must figure out a way to bridge the gap in The Other End of the Line, debuting on March 31 from MGM Home Entertainment. Jesse Metcalfe (“Desperate Housewives”) and Bollywood sensations Shriya Saran and Anupam Kher, star in a lighthearted modern day love story about an unexpected relationship between a charming New York executive and a call center employee based in Mumbai.

Young and spontaneous, Priya takes a chance at true love and secretly travels to San Francisco when Granger suggests they meet while in town for business. When Priya’s parents find out, they take the first plane to San Francisco and embark on a wild goose chase through the city to find and bring Priya back home. A fun-filled romantic comedy, The Other End of the Line also features Larry Miller (The Nutty Professor), Sarah Foster (The Big Bounce) and Tara Sharma (Masti), and is filmed on location throughout India.
