As a movie, this is just about less than OK. As to why the film maker chose to have the name "kamasutra" in the film title is pretty obvious. 1. To grab attention 2. To get international recognizability 3. To get everyone interested enough to buy a ticket
Unfortunately, the storyline has absolutely no relevance to the philosophy of the ancient Indian book. Just having a total of 7 dialog lines which are nothing but snippets from the book, does not make it a Kamasutra tale.
However, international audiences would find novelty in the film simply because of its portrayal of Indian colors/settings/customs (albeit with a creative license). However, film audiences who have seen enough movies will know a good film when they see one and this one will not be part of that list under any circumstances.
Yes, the name and imagery may be enticing but if you watch the movie without expecting a great deal, you would be on safe ground.
