A Nice Indian Boy

[Guest MikeThomas]

Just watched "A Nice Indian Boy" with Jonathan Groff and Karan Soni.  A very sweet boy-meets-boy story with a couple of twists.  Recommend.  It came out in 2024, but I didn't know about it until today.

There are at least a couple of scenes that are laugh out loud funny, like the dinner scene after Groff visits the bathroom and the mother's speech at the wedding.

Viewed this a couple of months ago, for me - it was a cute movie.  Like @dutchal stated - there are some witty lines.  Hadn't known that Karan Soni is gay in real life,  so different from his role in the "Deadpool" movies.

He is married to the film's director Roshan Sethi.

I enjoyed the film.

Zarna Garg (the mom) was on The View today to promote the start of her stand-up tour.  It's cued up to her.
