[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] What the hell does an "Indian moment" in entertainment have to do with anything?[/quote] I think the movie got better reviews than it deserved because it had a storyline about a Pakistani man. I think if it had been a movie about 2 white people, it would have been a major flop. Not sure how much more clear I can make it. I think there is an "Indian moment" in entertainment (The Mindy Show, Aziz Ansari's show and popularity, several other stand up comics), and people are intrigued by cross cultural relationships. I think this movie got the benefit of the popularity of the topic. [/quote] It would not have been the same movie if it was about two white people. The cultural differences created tension/drama which made it more interesting than two white people (which has been made time and time again). It's not an Indian Moment, it's just more diverse now. But thanks for playing.[/quote]
