The Ganguli family will be destined to travel to India again soon - this time under very different circumstances - and after all have endured life-changing events. As their US born son Gogol (Kal Penn) grows up, he rebels from his family, behaving like your typical American teenager. The shy, polite newlyweds attempt to get to know each other, and make their way in the foreign country. Gogol falls in love with Maxine Ratliff and moves in with her family, while Ashoke spends time traveling, and Sonia moves to California, leaving Ashima all her by herself. Ashima (Tabu) and Ashoke (Khan) move to America in 1977 after their arranged marriage in Calcutta. The second time they travel to India is when Gogol and Sonia are in their late teens, and after a memorable visit to Kolkata and then to the Taj Mahal, they return home. The family then buy their own house in the suburbs and travel to India for the first time after their marriage.
Shortly thereafter they become parents of a boy, who they initially name Gogol, and a few years later both give birth to Sonia. The train meets with an accident, and after recuperating, Ashoke re-locates to America, settles down, returns home in 1977 to get married to aspiring singer, Ashima, and returns home to New York.

This movie helped me to respect people more who come from a different culture, because I am sure it must be a struggle to adapt to American culture. I loved the insight it gave me on how difficult it may be to live in a country that does not share the same cultural beliefs as you do.
The family then buy their own house in the suburbs and travel to India for the first time after their marriage. The Namesake was a very interesting movie to me. The train meets with an accident, and after recuperating, Ashoke relocates to America, settles down, returns home in 1977 to get married to aspiring singer, Ashima, and returns home to New York. While traveling by train to visit his grandfather in Jamshedpur, Calcutta born, Bengalispeaking Ashoke Ganguli meets with fellowtraveler, Ghosh, who impresses upon him to travel, while Ashoke is deep into a book authored by Nicholai Gogol. For the first time in our decades-long movie going experience, we saw an audience (of mostly white women with a smattering of desis in this instance) spontaneously break out into applause at the end of a show.
