It was a cute enough movie BUT what struck me the most was the very blasé portrayal of obesity — across the board. Obese teachers, obese headmaster, obese parents — & what ‘killed me the most’, an extremely obese cardiologist! It was like a parody, BUT they really were trying to show normal life in modern India.
There was so much obesity in sight that I had to look it up. See ‘Google’ above. WOW.
Yes, they eat a lot of carbs.
I was disheartened. In my youth a fair number of folks in India were borderline malnourished. And now, in a 50-year period, THIS. Food for thought.
