Description:
After moving from Calcutta to New York, members of the Ganguli family maintain a delicate balancing act between honoring the traditions of their native India and blending into American culture in The Namesake (2006, PG-13), based on the novel by Jhumpi Lahiri. Although parents Ashoke (Irrfan Khan) and Ashima (Tabu) are proud of the sacrifices they made to give their offspring opportunities in America, their son Gogol (Kal Penn) strives to find a way to forge his own identity without abandoning his heritage.
