  Speaker 9: What a show?
• 35:59
  Speaker 8: Thank you very much much for that hour right before
• 36:01
  Speaker 8: us here and Russian what an amazing individual.
• 36:05
  Speaker 9: First of all, to be a doctor on cologist.
• 36:08
  Speaker 8: And then to be pulling off what he's doing as
• 36:10
  Speaker 8: a filmmaker and an author is incredible.
• 36:12
  Speaker 9: I mean, what was that like? How is that like?
• 36:14
  Speaker 9: Talking to him?
• 36:16
  Speaker 38: Well, it's always fun knowing that your guest is so
• 36:20
  Speaker 38: much smarter than all three hosts put together. We were
• 36:24
  Speaker 38: all dumbfounded speaking to him because Mona and I are
• 36:29
  Speaker 38: looking for a joke. Ukshay is endlessly fascinated. But then
• 36:33
  Speaker 38: he's Russian telling us about his m CAT scores and
• 36:37
  Speaker 38: how high they are, and that even while being a
• 36:40
  Speaker 38: successful director and now novelist, he still does nine weeks.
• 36:45
  Speaker 38: That is a practicing physician in Boston, so he has
• 36:49
  Speaker 38: a caseload. He's still very much up to date, very
• 36:53
  Speaker 38: part of the medical system and taking care of people
• 36:56
  Speaker 38: and saving their lives through medicine. But all so in
• 37:01
  Speaker 38: a way, saving people's lives through his art by doing
• 37:04
  Speaker 38: representations of communities that often.
• 37:07
  Speaker 7: Are marginalized, through his own personal experience.
• 37:10
  Speaker 38: Being gay, being the director of A Nice Indian Boy,
• 37:15
  Speaker 38: which starts his.
• 37:16
  Speaker 7: Partner the Great Coutain.
• 37:17
  Speaker 38: Sony and Gross, which is an amazing rom com. Regardless
• 37:22
  Speaker 38: of how you identify. It's one of the best movies
• 37:25
  Speaker 38: I had seen in the last ten years. And if
• 37:29
  Speaker 38: you don't find yourself kying by the end, I just
• 37:31
  Speaker 38: don't think you have a heart. But we had the
• 37:35
  Speaker 38: privilege of getting to talk to him as he's doing
• 37:38
  Speaker 38: a press tour for his new novel, The Stimp, which
• 37:42
  Speaker 38: is a kind of an update of will you make
• 37:46
  Speaker 38: these sackery vanity fair? Or share? That same lineage of
• 37:50
  Speaker 38: it of a young Indian man in Hollywood lying his
• 37:55
  Speaker 38: way into a situation of working, or this famous Hollywood couple,
• 38:02
  Speaker 38: and the wise that we tell ourselves to fit into
• 38:06
  Speaker 38: different communities, how we shrink ourselves to fit into spaces
• 38:10
  Speaker 38: we want to be a part of.
• 38:12
  Speaker 7: And it is a book without a hero, and that
• 38:15
  Speaker 7: is actually part of the title.
• 38:17
  Speaker 38: Novel without a hero, because he's not an aspirational character, right,
• 38:21
  Speaker 38: He's not.
• 38:24
  Speaker 7: In the way that Groschen. You look at him.
• 38:25
  Speaker 38: Professionally, say wow, here's a guy who can not only
• 38:29
  Speaker 38: be a very smart, well learned, talented professional and a doctor,
• 38:35
  Speaker 38: but now he's also been a medical consultant on television shows.
• 38:39
  Speaker 38: He's been a writer, he's been a director, and he's
• 38:42
  Speaker 38: out there doing so much. You look at him and go, hey,
• 38:47
  Speaker 38: that's something career wise to aspire to of really knowing that, yeah,
• 38:52
  Speaker 38: we can do it all, because there are those among
• 38:56
  Speaker 38: us who have done it all to the degree that
• 38:58
  Speaker 38: they can. And his character smallly shares similarities to all
• 39:04
  Speaker 38: of us and Russian's personal experience. He's not an aspirational character.
• 39:08
  Speaker 38: Nobody wants to be like him, right.
• 39:11
  Speaker 7: Right, It'd be too painful. And also it's just so complicated.
• 39:16
  Speaker 38: But it's an amazingly rewarding novel that everyone should pick up.
• 39:20
  Speaker 7: The simp by Rosane.
• 39:22
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it's incredible. I'm looking at it right now as
• 39:24
  Speaker 9: I'm talking to you.
• 39:25
  Speaker 8: This is remarkable, a novel without a hero, which kind
• 39:30
  Speaker 8: of speaks and echoes to your point of the character
• 39:34
  Speaker 8: in the book not necessarily being some aspirational figure, but
• 39:37
  Speaker 8: rather someone that is sharing his story there. And I
• 39:39
  Speaker 8: think when you look at an individual like Russian and
• 39:45
  Speaker 8: just the breadth of work that he's done, and then
• 39:47
  Speaker 8: you have this film that I was familiar with, which
• 39:50
  Speaker 8: is a nice Indian boy, and tell us about that
• 39:53
  Speaker 8: and did he touch on that experience of being involved
• 39:56
  Speaker 8: in that film and as a director, and did he
• 39:59
  Speaker 8: share his experience of going through that and the irony
• 40:02
  Speaker 8: of course the title, and his personal circumstances there.
• 40:06
  Speaker 38: Yeah, he talked extensively about the process of making A
• 40:10
  Speaker 38: Nice Indian Boy, with the finding financing, Jonathan Gross really
• 40:16
  Speaker 38: being the engine that got them there, financing because you
• 40:19
  Speaker 38: have the Tony Award winner who is in Hamilton and
• 40:22
  Speaker 38: mind Hunter and all of these big projects that people
• 40:25
  Speaker 38: know about. In order to get this movie really made
• 40:29
  Speaker 38: and distributed. It was through the reputation of Jonathan Gross,
• 40:33
  Speaker 38: the prominent white coat to heart in it, and that
• 40:39
  Speaker 38: they were able to make this movie that was adored
• 40:43
  Speaker 38: critically and by all who had seen it, but still
• 40:46
  Speaker 38: has difficulty being seen getting the kind of distribution that
• 40:51
  Speaker 38: a lot of movies that have big name stars in
• 40:55
  Speaker 38: it that are of lesser quality. Yeah, can play three
• 40:58
  Speaker 38: thousand screens, do no business.
• 41:00
  Speaker 7: But has seriously, we'll tract on their career or their
• 41:03
  Speaker 7: box office.
• 41:06
  Speaker 38: You mentioned some specifically like Collen Turner, Sydney Sweeney, people
• 41:10
  Speaker 38: like that, who can take these who can make these
• 41:12
  Speaker 38: movies that aren't successful, but it doesn't really push the
• 41:16
  Speaker 38: needle back on their career. Just here's something that happened,
• 41:19
  Speaker 38: and now we're onto the next movie, where with this
• 41:24
  Speaker 38: they'll say it's a story we're not interested in, or
• 41:27
  Speaker 38: they're not willing to take a chance on it, primarily
• 41:30
  Speaker 38: because it's an all it's a primarily Indian cast, or
• 41:35
  Speaker 38: saying that there isn't a market for it. So we
• 41:37
  Speaker 38: touch on a lot of things, especially the fact that
• 41:39
  Speaker 38: our community collectively globally but especially.
• 41:42
  Speaker 7: Here in the US, needs to do a better job
• 41:45
  Speaker 7: of showing up to support projects that our community make.
• 41:51
  Speaker 38: An example like Deli Voice critically adored, people really love
• 41:55
  Speaker 38: the show, have friends on the show, and it just got.
• 41:59
  Speaker 9: Cancel Chencel, what a disaster. So sad?
• 42:02
  Speaker 38: Yeah, and are There are a lot of things that
• 42:05
  Speaker 38: go into that, And that was one of the projects
• 42:07
  Speaker 38: that most of are a large amount of our community
• 42:10
  Speaker 38: showed up for. But then you think about other movies
• 42:13
  Speaker 38: like India, Sweeps and Spices polite society blinded by the
• 42:17
  Speaker 38: light of these movies that didn't have the biggest budgets
• 42:21
  Speaker 38: but did have a box office release, and our community
• 42:26
  Speaker 38: didn't show up as much as they should. And I
• 42:29
  Speaker 38: could talk to people outside of Los Angeles to New
• 42:31
  Speaker 38: York and ask, hey, did you go see this? Did
• 42:33
  Speaker 38: you even hear about it, and they don't hear about it. Well,
• 42:37
  Speaker 38: we have the energy to show up to big, big
• 42:39
  Speaker 38: ticket Bollywood movies to be a part of that conversation.
• 42:42
  Speaker 38: What we're leaving behind is the stories that we're telling
• 42:46
  Speaker 38: here or in Canada or in the UK, and we're
• 42:50
  Speaker 38: not supporting them with the same energy. We're not showing
• 42:53
  Speaker 38: up on streaming and watching them with that same energy
• 42:56
  Speaker 38: that we should. We're not showing up to the box office.
• 42:58
  Speaker 38: We're not telling people much. But at the same time
• 43:01
  Speaker 38: we're rattling our tain saying we want to be seen.
• 43:05
  Speaker 7: Give us a chance, give us an opportunity.
• 43:07
  Speaker 38: And while that is important, we should be demanding more
• 43:11
  Speaker 38: or requesting more and just making our art, making good
• 43:14
  Speaker 38: art that anybody, regardless of the community, can resonate with
• 43:18
  Speaker 38: and experience. If we collectively as a Bacy community don't
• 43:23
  Speaker 38: show up to support our own, then how mad can
• 43:27
  Speaker 38: we be at anybody else.
• 43:28
  Speaker 7: Showing up to support us? And that's the thing that
• 43:30
  Speaker 7: we see.
• 43:30
  Speaker 38: Everybody wants to be on the red carpet and take
• 43:32
  Speaker 38: the photos and meet the people, but are you actually
• 43:36
  Speaker 38: watching it? Are you kicking around and are you taking
• 43:39
  Speaker 38: chances on things that you don't necessarily know are for you,
• 43:43
  Speaker 38: because ultimately, A Nice Indian Boy is just a beautiful
• 43:46
  Speaker 38: romantic comedy. It is a really funny, really sweet, really
• 43:50
  Speaker 38: heart felt movie. And yes it's a queer love story,
• 43:54
  Speaker 38: but that is part of it. But that shouldn't be
• 43:58
  Speaker 38: the reason you don't watch it. You should open your
• 44:02
  Speaker 38: mind and your horizon and just connect with good art
• 44:05
  Speaker 38: because it is And that is something that Roussan said.
• 44:07
  Speaker 38: He doesn't want you to watch his movie or read
• 44:10
  Speaker 38: his book because of a performative desire to support the community.
• 44:14
  Speaker 7: He wants you to engage with it because it's good
• 44:17
  Speaker 7: and judge it on his own merit.
• 44:18
  Speaker 38: And both of them are incredible pieces of work. So
• 44:22
  Speaker 38: I hope that after people have listened to our interview
• 44:26
  Speaker 38: with him, that they seek these out. They go and
• 44:29
  Speaker 38: watch Knights Indian Boy, They read the STEMP, and they
• 44:32
  Speaker 38: engage with this and then become even more inquisitive and
• 44:35
  Speaker 38: go and watch more things and engage with more things.
• 44:38
