Had the best time talking to Diep about everything under the sun! So honored to be profiled by her in @AmericanTheatre magazine.

The new Indian bill on trans rights removes the right to self determination for the world’s largest queer community and is nothing short of erasure. Sending love to all my trans siblings back home and hoping the continued outrage helps fuel change https://t.co/Rh2mVIuLrz

@thequeenpri I love that moment so much. The way they look at each other. It's when they fall in love. It's the perfect song for the moment. Thank you for sharing it with us.

A NICE INDIAN BOY is such a delight. My review of the romantic comedy based on @madplays's play, available for purchase or rent on Amazon: https://t.co/ERmXSw0Ea9

[GAY TIMES @gaytimes]

Following the digital release of A Nice Indian Boy, GAY TIMES spoke with director Roshan Sethi and star Karan Soni about the rom-com’s historic gay and South Asian representation, and how it both subverts and pays homage to the genre. https://t.co/FAxdpoHUkD

@samiaba15 hi! Please call your local theater and ask them to bring it to you! That's how indie films like this get to expand!

@nandiniv Thank you so much!! We’re hoping it gets an India release as well soon!!

I somehow put into words how much I adored A Nice Indian Boy. A sweet, hilarious, and soulful movie about romance, family, and culture. One of my favourites of the year 🥰 #LFF

more gay indian weddings on screen!!

A Nice Indian Boy swerves rom-com conventions and becomes a treatise on marriage, shifting generational attitudes + the intersection between race + cultural identity

Karan Soni + Jonathan Groff present hopelessly vulnerable love so damn well

@SiddhantAdlakha Thank you for the shout-out and support! <3

@hankgreen I find them extremely comfortable and fun, but I only need so many socks! So the subscription model didn't really make that much sense to me. I have about 8 now and that's all I need.

For the love of god please

How does having more police on the subway make us safer when cops shoot 4 people (including a cop) trying to stop someone who jumped the turnstile?

And the alleged farebeater wasn't "wielding" a knife. The cops found it in his pocket.

Every level of city government under @NYCMayor is corrupt. I hope all of these criminals end up in jail.

I can’t understand why “crazed ex-president who committed crimes trying to illegally hang onto power now running again and promising to end the constitutional order and imprison everyone who ever tried to hold him accountable” isn’t front page hyperventilating news material.

@SiddhantAdlakha Sana Amanat worked very closely with G Willow Wilson - I assumed Kamala (with that particular pronunciation) was an Urdu name from the beginning
