mira nair is directing the film version of “the namesake!”
whoever has that book should read it, it’s quit good. and kal penn as gogol? omg, no way. serious-ish role. definitely different. i don’t think i can get over him as kumar… or at least the weird indian guy from “van wilder.”
i can’t wait! (but i need to read more stories where the indians do not move to boston and all work for mit and harvard.)
