Well, I might/intend to see it someday, as much as I've also seen Gandhi (not even played by an Indian), also just to see, how much of it happens to be a Non-Indian-movie, like so many say, including the director etc....I don't know about the glitz and glamour of Hollywood...I've never been there...I know, that India has it's own glamour...yet, there is that craving for western recognition, it seems to me, which I think is "silly"...you just have to believe in the value of your work, whether you get that recognition/Oscar or not...Have you been in India too?There was an Angela in Mumbai/Pune...sorry, if I got personal/too curious...

Some brainy foreigners (Indians etc) leaving the US...braindrain...India profitting of it I bet:
