Meet The Patels is a documentary about finding love. And in the case of Ravi Patel, a first generation Indian-American actor, it’s really an uphill task. Apart from the regular qualities one would like their partner to have, Ravi’s bride needs to be specifically Indian, Gujarati and a fellow Patel. His parents don’t see why that can be hard. After all they have an efficient system in place. A few phone calls and the entire Patel community in the US know that their son is on the market. All Ravi has to do is go on numerous dates with Patel women across the country and find his match. Ravi’s sister Geeta, a documentary filmmaker, captures this hilarious journey on camera and strings together a narrative that will make a lot you go, ‘that could be me!” or ‘that is me’. Watch this for Ravi and Geeta’s loveable and sometimes irrational parents who can’t wait for their son to “settle down” and produce five grandchildren.
