Indian-American Actress from Blockers, Bad Education; actor from Deadpool, Deadpool 2 in COVID-19 drama-comedy


Stars Geraldine Viswanathan from Blockers (2018), Bad Education (2019) and Karan Soni, the cab driver in Deadpool (2016) and Deadpool 2 (2018).

An English language drama-comedy about a young Indian-American man and woman, who have a pre-arranged date, organized by their traditional Indian parents. They are forced to shelter in place together due to COVID-19. 1 hour 26 minutes. (This is not a Bollywood film.)

This won the "Best First Feature" award at the 2022 Film Independent Spirit Awards.

IMDB rating 7.0.; Metascore 67 from 8 film critics:

The Hollywood Reporter: "This premise — of two people with divergent personalities potentially falling in love — is not new, but 7 Days satisfyingly freshens up a stale formula, thanks in large part to the lead performances."

Variety: "In the future, audiences may tire of movies about COVID-19. For the moment, however, 7 Days arrives as a funny, modest charmer."

It gets a wide theater release on March 25, 2022. I have not seen it.
