Deadpool star's gay rom-com premieres with a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes

A Nice Indian Boy, featuring Deadpool's Karan Soni and Mindhunter's Jonathan Groff, has achieved a perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes following its initial reviews.

This upcoming film is characterized as "a fresh queer and Indian take on the rom-com tropes," showcasing Soni and Groff as Naveen and Jay, whose whirlwind romance quickly leads to an engagement. However, Naveen hasn't introduced Jay to his family yet—who aren't exactly what they expected.

Although the film doesn’t have an official release date, it premiered at SXSW (South by Southwest Film Festival) earlier this year and is screening at the BFI London Film Festival today. As of now, A Nice Indian Boy boasts an impressive 100% critics' score on Rotten Tomatoes from nine reviews.

Here's a glimpse of what some critics are saying:

The Hollywood Reporter:"By the end, even those who don’t fancy themselves the sentimental type — as Naveen doesn’t, and I don’t particularly either — are likely to be won over by its modest but dependable charms."

// Cras eget sem nec dui volutpat ultrices.

Collider:"Not only does it evoke beloved classics from the '90s and early 2000s, but it’s also a queer love story that surpasses many heteronormative narratives that have been released on streaming platforms recently."

Screen Rant:"A Nice Indian Boy perfectly blends romance and comedy, infused with culture and a lot of heart. Karan Soni and Hamilton's Jonathan Groff are outstanding together, and the challenges they face—both personal and familial—are approached with care and affection."

Mashable:"A riotous, moving queer romantic comedy with a wildly unique premise. While it shares similarities with many modern third-culture narratives, it expands its perspective in unexpected ways that reflect and refract both personal and cinematic identities."

IndieWire:"A Nice Indian Boy delights in defying expectations while adhering to a traditional love story structure."

A Nice Indian Boy has yet to receive a UK release date.
