Monsoon wedding
Mira Nayar's new movie 'Monsoon Wedding' received a good review in NYT yesterday. It seems to be about the traditional Indian wedding of a not-so-traditional US resident Indian from an affluent family. The subject has lots of as-yet-unexploited potentials. I always felt that Mira Nayar is a competent filmmaker, but not a great one. But she is one of a handful of filmmakers from my part of the world who have an international audience. I am happy for her. Yesterday's NYT also had an interesting snippet about Sabrina Dhawan - the scriptwriter for the movie.
Now, let's hope that it gets released in the Bay area soon!
