Asia Society Texas and Aerial Roots Theatre Company bring Madhuri Shekar's A Nice Indian Boy back to Houston audiences, offering a warm and witty portrayal of love and marriage in today's Desi diaspora.
Naveen Gavaskar just wants a traditional Hindu marriage to a nice Indian ... boy. A meet-cute at a temple sparks a romance between Naveen, a Type A, Bay Area engineer, and Keshav, a free-spirited, Bollywood-loving man who happens to be white. Naveen brings his new boyfriend home to his Indian-American family, just as his sharp-tongued sister, Arundhathi, returns with news of her own. What follows is an uproarious journey as the family navigates duty, tradition, and self-discovery in their quest for happily-ever-afters.
