For years, Naveen, (Karan Soni) an Indian American doctor, has been pressured to get married but he endearingly fumbles romantic connections due to his shyness. He also thinks that his parents are uncomfortable with his sexual orientation.
Things take a turn when Naveen encounters a Jay, (Jonathan Groff) a professional photographer. Naveen is smitten. Jay was a foster child adopted by Indian immigrant parents who have since died but he’s retained genuine attachment to the culture.
Jay and Naveen move in together. Despite lifestyle differences, (introvert vs extrovert) they realize that marriage may be on the horizon. However, various speed bumps confront them, especially when Naveen introduces Jay to his parents, Megha (Zarna Garg) and Archit (Harish Patel), telling a few wincing white lies in the process. His sister Arundhathi (Sunita Mani) doesn’t help by agitating the situation.
Comedic misunderstandings, emotional outbursts, and familial turmoil ensue.
Both Karan Soni and Jonathan Groff are engaging performers, imbuing their relationship with credibility. They are well supported by screenwriters Eric Randall and Madhuri Shekar who conjure empathetic characters. Even the parents are given appealing texture.
Director Sethi injects infectious charm into the proceedings sidelining sit-com clichés. “A Nice Indian Boy” is a sweet, humorous film.
