But Mr. Vij over at Ultrabrown has <a href="http://www.ultrabrown.com/posts/king-of-book-launches" target="_blank">several good ones</a>.... Darshana, interesting that the film drew such a non-Indian crowd. Then again, recently a Peruvian friend rang up from out of the blue, someone I'd lost touch with for quite a while, and he mentioned having seen several Hindi movies. You coulda' knocked me over with a feather. Hey SB, I didn’t really take many; was too busy chatting with friends and whatnot.

Anu's intro was perfect for an audience which was 99% non-Indian and new to BW - this summer movie festival has a crowd of regulars. I was really pleased to be part of this crowd that was clearly engaged with the movie - nobody left, people laughed at the right places, etc. It's absolutely the biggest number of non-South-Asians -- about 100 times bigger -- I've ever seen at a BW movie. And with its New York setting and spectacular production numbers, it was a good choice, I think, for providing entertainment and some surprises.
