Default Re: Naveen Andrews [Actor]

Well, he certainly does not look Anglo-Indian (half caucasian/half Indian). He can't be a mixed breed. He has no western features.

There is one theory that his father converted him to Christianity.


If this is the case, he is not truely an Indian and the parts he has played for Indian/western cross-over movies should have gone to proper Indians who know about the culture and practices. Much better roles models.

I am proud to be Indian. I don't care that I was born in England. All it means is that I have an accent and people often wonder what the hell I am in the U.S. I tell them I'm an "Indian who happens to be born in England", and yeah, I kept my full name because it's my family name and it bears a lot of history, signifying my ancestory with the ancient Arayans.
England's okay. Sometimes the people really annoyed me but it was fun growing up with the good ones.

He's a bit harsh on England. He should show "some love" for the country and any friends he had left behind. After all, it was the country that he came from to journey to the U.S.

I appreciate all the support I found at various soccer clubs I played for in England. Some coaches and collegaues really helped me develop as a player (since I started very late in the game). Education was the same way, although, some educators truely were poor there. True fuddy duddies that hindered rather than do their job.

Oh well, that's just life and the luck of the draw.


I still stress, I am not trying to put Naveen down. He just needs to think a little about blurting stuff out in Interviews.

In addition, change that silly name. No Indian is called "Andrews" by surname lol. It's popostrous! I say!


Sincerely,
