A Subhash K Jha Review – “A Nice Indian Boy, When Mother Knows Best”
Image
In that recent Tamil film Kaadhal Enbadhu Podhu Udamai, when the daughter brings her same-sex lover home for dinner, the mother (Rohini) loses all control.

The mother in A Nice Indian Boy, Megha, played with warmth, curiosity, dread, and acceptance by Zarna Garg, is much more accommodating. I won’t say she is a true liberal, although Megha would like to think she is. When her son Naveen (Karan Soni) brings home his boyfriend Jay (Jonathan Groff), Mom Megha welcomes him as she ought to: a liberal Indian mom who wants only her son to be happy.

Of course, in actuality, life’s decisions are not that simply laid out on the table. It is this struggle to do the right thing which makes Megha one of the most special mothers I’ve seen on screen in recent times.

Unlike other conservative mothers who don’t even put on a show of acceptance,...

A Nice Indian Boy is charming, funny, deeply emotional, and oh so full of love
Image
The critically acclaimed and audience applauded, A Nice Indian Boy is available to stream now and we say “Go Click Play Now”. Directed by Roshan Sethi, the film was written by Eric Randall, based on the play by Madhuri Shekar. A Nice Indian Boy features incredible performances by Karan Soni and Jonathan Groff. The film also boasts an outstanding supporting cast, including Sunita Mani, Zarna Garg, Harish Patel, Peter S. Kim, and Sas Goldberg.

Our story begins with a meet-cute that turns, as love stories are wont to do, into a beautiful journey, at times fraught with tension, but also full of heart, all reaching for a happily ever after (Hea). Naveen is a self-effacing, soft-spoken doctor with a boisterous mother, Megha, seemingly perfect sister, Arundhathi, and quiet father, Archit. The Gavaskars are outwardly accepting of Naveen’s sexuality but have never had to confront it in practice. Then Naveen...

‘A Nice Indian Boy’ Review: Bollywood Dreams Come True In an Appealing Indian American Romcom
Image
The prize catch of the title isn’t exactly who you might expect in “A Nice Indian Boy,” a romantic comedy that brings a welcome queer angle to that substantial subgenre of love stories tangled up in Indian social mores and cross-generational family politics. In many such films, Naveen (Karan Soni) would be the most desirable of matches for a female protagonist: good-looking, well-spoken and a working doctor. That he’s gay puts him in the less traditionally masculine role of the one seeking a suitor; that his “nice Indian boy” is in fact Jay (Jonathan Groff), a white man raised in Naveen’s culture, is the more complicating factor in director Roshan Sethi’s bright, big-hearted if overly tidy third feature.

Still, Sethi and screenwriters Eric Randall — adapting a stage play by Madhuri Shekar — aren’t out to subvert every trope and tradition in the book. From its meet-cute...

Actress Megha Chakraborty: I wanted to be a dancer, but acting happened suddenly
Image
New Delhi, March 22 (Ians) Actress Megha Chakraborty, who is currently portraying the lead in the television show ‘Imlie’, shared that she was more interested in dancing and acting was never on her mind but it happened suddenly.

She said: “I wanted to be a dancer, but acting happened suddenly. I just gave my shot in one of the auditions and got selected…. and then my journey started.”

Talking about joining the show after it became successful and audience who related to Sumbul Touqeer as Imlie, Megha said she had lot of pressure to make her place.

As she said: “Definitely because Imlie was already a hit. The maker wanted some changes in the story and it was a pressure to maintain Imlie like before and to sustain the Trp. I am trying to keep the audience happy and we, together as a new team, are trying our best.”
