Neal 'n' Nikki is a 2005 Indian Hindi-language romantic comedy film directed by Arjun Sablok and produced by Yash Chopra under the banner of Yash Raj Films. The film stars Uday Chopra and Tanishaa, with a special appearance by Abhishek Bachchan. Set primarily in British Columbia, Canada, the narrative follows Neal, a carefree Indo-Canadian man who agrees to meet potential brides at his parents' request but ends up entangled with the free-spirited Nikki during a series of comedic misadventures.
The film marked Sablok's second directorial venture with Yash Raj Films after Na Tum Jaano Na Hum (2002). Principal photography took place across various locations in Canada, including Vancouver and Whistler. The music was composed by Salim–Sulaiman, with lyrics by Anvita Dutt Guptan.
Released theatrically on 9 December 2005, Neal 'n' Nikki received overwhelmingly negative reviews from critics, who criticized its screenplay, humor, and excessive focus on skin-show, though some praised its production values and soundtrack. The film underperformed at the domestic box office but fared comparatively better in overseas markets due to its Westernized tone and diaspora appeal.
