A NICE INDIAN BOY

When shy Indian doctor Naveen (Karan Soni) falls for caucasian photographer Jay (Jonathon Groff), he finds himself torn between his burgeoning relationship and being completely honest with his family. They are aware of his sexu*lity but don’t discuss it openly. While the theme of being gay out and risking rejection isn’t new, this film is still a joyful, colourful rom-com filled with warmth and heart. Zarna Garg as Naveen’s stoic and loyal mother Megha delivers the most humorous moments with impeccable comedic timing. The entire cast is a delight, and the story offers meaningful lessons about acceptance, true love, and overcoming differences. Feel good with a touch of Bollywood spirit.
