@j: Amen to that. Manvendra is seriously brave. And it’s wonderful that he’s setting up this old age home. While we’re fantasizing about its palatial library with audiobooks and braille and whatnot, let’s not forget about good old fashioned large print.

This guy is nine kinds of fierce! In a culture where being gay makes one an “outcast” he’s still fighting, dreaming, & planning.
They should also consider a small theater with good A/V equipment, so they can make YouTube vids. We need more sassy seniors re-enacting zany scenes from movies or episodes of The Office, Monty Python, 30 Rock, and Golden Girls—done Bollywood style.

This will never work. Senior citizens and curry do not mix.

Why does spamolot about dating web sites and some supah-model get through yet our posts get consistently sent to the ‘time out’ room for mood-er-ation?

Um, you’re an “outcast” in the US if you’re gay, too. Gays can’t even get married here, so stop acting like India is SOOO far behind!
Dumb homonationalists.

Always admired this guy for not taking the easy road. I mean, if I were to inherit what he would there’s a real chance I wouldn’t come out, and I’m open with everyone I know. It takes alot of guts to do what he did, especially in a country like india. Props.
