Interview w/ Director Mira Nair

Nice Interview. Wondering how I missed this movie... BTW, I do not see any offense in that interviewer saying 'Bangladeshi' instead of 'Bengali'. After all, 'Bangladesh' is our neighboring country. Most importantly, Bangladeshi's immigrate to India for a better lifestyle (compared to what they have in Bangladesh) and we move to USA - Life Goes On! :). Thank God! They did not interview the person who would've walked out on such a "TRIVIAL STUFF"! ;-)

1st, I'm glad you are watching the show.

2nd, it was NOT a matter of disrespect, one of my producers gave the wrong pronunciation. (They are no longer with the show).

3rd, unlike you, she did not walk off which shows she is a total professional! Off screen, she was just as cool.

4th, BTW, keep watching!

Bangladeshi family? What an idiot. There is nothing sicker than seeing a person of color disrespect another person of color;s culture like that. Get your shit straight before you open your mouth. She was so cool about it. I would have walked out on your sorry ass.
