A release date for A Nice Indian Boy has finally been announced. Based on Madhuri Shekar’s hit play of the same name, the upcoming romantic comedy stars Karan Soni as the “socially-reserved doctor Naveen, who brings his fiancé Jay” – played by Looking star Jonathan Groff – “home to meet his traditional family”.
The synopsis adds: “[Naveen’s family] must contend with accepting his white-orphan-artist boyfriend and helping them plan the Indian wedding of their dreams”.
Since its premiere at SXSW and BFI Film Festival earlier this year, A Nice Indian Boy has received praise from critics – with many lauding the film’s humour, Soni and Groff’s performances, and its refreshing representation of the LGBTQIA+ community in India.
The rom-com also boasts a 100% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Fortunately for LGBTQIA+ moviegoers, a general release date for the wholesome film has finally been revealed.
