Rating: 

If you were expecting a 'Lost in Translation' then you are in for a humungous disappointment. Yes, Bill Murray has the lead role but he is not in 'lead' spirits here. This Barry ('Wag the Dog', 'Rain Man') Levinson directed comedic-drama set in the east(exotica for the westerners) is loosely inspired by the true-grit story of Setara Hussainzada, an Afghan woman who braved death threats to appear in the country's homespun version of 'American Idol' going by the name of 'The Afghan Star'.
