      abstract = {Five years ago in Bombay, Dr. Madan Kataria decided to  find out whether or not "laughter is the best medicine." He  gathered together a group of patients and neighbors to meet  daily to laugh. After a time, Dr. Kataria found that the  participants experienced improved health and decreased  levels of stress. Thus was born across India the phenomenon  of laughing clubs. Since then, clubs have spread to Europe  and to the United States.In this film, award-winning  director Mira Nair has created a compassionate, sometimes  ironic portrait of a number of "serious laughers" who meet  daily in these clubs in pursuit of happiness.},
