A wonderful piece that feels absolutely authentic for me and I'm sure for many of South Asian origin. Keshav is a fascinating character, the classic "more Indian than most Indians" and his first meeting with the parents is a tour-de-force. I love that the parents are great comic characters but never caricatures, and their own needs and views are genuine and powerfully rendered. I also fully appreciate the insertion of Bollywood song and would really enjoy seeing this one staged.
