ill make you more proud.
actually a week ago I met an Indian Dr. and he was saying how india is not developing and everything and I have noticed that the Indians from age 30-50 living in U.S. are criticizing as if they were doing anything to help India. anyways, I had to beg differ and the Indians in India are making India proud not Indians in America but they still contribute to India if they take it as a Indian. ex: gaga over bobby jindal. 🤢

oh also, Dev Patel is from U.K. Indian. and Pinto is Indian U.K. ... they were trained in U.K's theatre companies.
