INDIAN RACISM in SILVER PLAYBOOK (Anupam Kher)????

😕 Don't get me wrong with the intention of this topic. SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK is currently an Oscar-nominated film. It stars Bradley Cooper and Anupam Kher has a supporting role as Dr. Patel (therapist for Bradley Cooper's character). I am shocked that no article has talked about the Indian racism in the movie. There is one scene where all the characters go to a baseball game. And Anupam Kher shows his love for the Philadelphia Eagles. Then, these people fight with Anupam's character and his friends saying "Take your Curry back to your Country." 😡 Even though I am not from India, it was in bad taste and I can't believe Anupam would do a role in a movie that is racist against his country. Somehow, the scene was unnecessary. Why would INDIAN RACISM be encouraged in a HOLLYWOOD FILM? This is not setting a good example and I can't believe why Indians are not outraged. Please share your thoughts. Should SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK be boycotted for this one scene of INDIAN RACISM?!!! 😭

I also want to add that when this happens Bradley Cooper's character beats up the guys for being racist towards his therapist. So on what basis do you count it as an anti-Indian or racist scene. It shows two sides of the coin. On one hand you have ignorant racists and on the other hand you have someone who takes a stand (albeit violent) against it.
