    The movie has already come out - it came out a few months ago - dont think it is available in DVD yet - you could check some of the Indian movie rental places.

    I have been reading Her books.Completed both Namesake and Interpreter of maladies.
    The characters are gloomy and lost.Her descriptions are very good.Enjoyed reading her books,though did not feel connected to any of the characters.

    In "Interpreter of maladies" which story did you like the most?I liked "Mrs.Sen" and "Sexy" among the all.

    I saw this movie. It was good but very slow.
    I read her other book 'Unaccustomed Earth'. It has few different stories...all of them are about the second generation Indian Americans. It is also good, I like her style of writing.
