Blissfully happy in his biracial marriage and on the heels of becoming a dad, Varun is surprised to discover that his wife’s ex-boyfriend was also Indian. And so was the one before him. And then some.
With a sharp script and nuanced direction that illuminates the vulnerability of his characters, Sam Baron delivers a hilarious commentary on racial stereotypes, xenophobia, and the identity woes that sometimes come with the joys of biracial dating. A notable ensemble cast which includes the director’s long-time collaborator Amit Shah (Crashing, The Hundred-Foot Journey) and Shobu Kapoor (Polite Society), shines with impeccable comedic timing and delicious bite.
