A Nice Indian Boy at Olney Theatre Center

A meet-cute at the local temple brings Naveen face-to-face with the man of his dreams: a fellow Marathi-speaking Hindu who loves the same Bollywood films and can cook a mean dal makhani. If his parents were ever going to accept him bringing home a boyfriend, Keshav would be that boy except hes white, raised by Indian foster parents who adopted him. But theyre madly in-love and so off they head to the Gevaskar house, where Naveens white boyfriend isnt the only surprise ready to walk through the door. This inter-generational, inter-cultural comedy presents a warm portrait of an Indian family wrestling with tradition, masculinity, and acceptance.
