Bend It Like Beckham (2002) Poster

Shaheen Khan: Mrs. Bhamra

Quotes 

  • Mrs. Bhamra : [after having agreed to let Jess go to America]  At least I taught her full Indian dinner, the rest is up to God.

  • Mrs. Bhamra : Your sister's getting engaged and you're sitting here watching this skinhead boy!

    Jess : Mum, it's Beckham's corner!

  • Jess : But, Dad!

    Mrs. Bhamra : [interrupts]  No! This is where you spoil her! No, this is how it started with your niece - the way that girl would answer back. And, then, running off to become a model wearing small, small skirts!

    Jess : Mom, she's a fashion designer!

  • Mrs. Bhamra : I don't want you running around half naked in front of men, huh? Look how dark you've become, playing in the sun!

    Jess : But, Mom, I'm really good!

    Mrs. Bhamra : What family will want a daughter-in-law who can run around kicking football all day but can't make round chapattis? Now exams are over, I want you to learn full Punjabi dinner, meat and vegetarian.

  • Mr. Bhamra : Jessie, now that your sister has got engaged, it's different. You know how people talk.

    Jess : She's the one gettin' married, not me!

    Mrs. Bhamra : I was married at your age! You don't even want to learn to cook dhal!
