Queer Rom-Com ‘A Nice Indian Boy’ From Producer Justin Baldoni Debuts First Trailer-February 2024

A Nice Indian Boy has released its first trailer that stars Karan Soni and Jonathan Groff ahead of its theatrical release next month.

Director Roshan Sethis romantic-comedy feature hits theaters April 4 from Blue Harbor Entertainment. Hailing from Levantine Films and Wayfarer Studios, the movie also stars Sunita Mani, Zarna Garg, Harish Patel, Peter S. Kim and Sas Goldberg.

A Nice Indian Boy centers on Naveen (Soni), an introverted doctor grappling with introducing his artist boyfriend, Jay (Groff), to his traditional Indian parents amid the possibility of planning a big wedding. My parents are super liberal, Soni says in the trailer. Just dont bring up drinking or sex and no displays of physical affection.

Later, Groff reflects on their romantic path. I think a lot of people are a little embarrassed by the bigness of love, he says. The family, the wedding its about everybody together.

Sethi helmed the project from a script by Eric Randall that is based on the stage play from playwright Madhuri Shekar. Renee Witt, Charlie McSpadden, Justin Baldoni and Andrew Calof serve as producers, while Mindy Kaling is an executive producer.

In her review of A Nice Indian Boy for The Hollywood Reporter following its debut at last years SXSW, critic Angie Han wrote that its real strength lies in its sensitivity toward the messy feelings, smaller acts, and platonic and familial bonds that underlie those epic shows of romance.

Baldoni co-founded Wayfarer Studios, the production company behind last years Sony releaseIt Ends With Us, which surpassed $350 million at the global box office. The project has been at the center of controversy amid theongoing legal battlebetween Baldoni who directed and co-stars in the feature and lead actress Blake Lively.
