GAUTAM is awkward and shy; DAN oozes confidence. DAN deftly juggles his coffee and cookies; GAUTAM drops drinks. GAUTAM is afraid to talk to girls; DAN finds himself in bed with girls he's only just met . Gautam Joshi is thirty years old; with a job in a call center that his parents think is just one step up from unemployment and in a relationship that his girlfriend Michelle thinks is going nowhere. But Gautam loves his world. He makes more money than his father, and women actually want to go out with him: Blonde bombshells, friends of friends, strangers in bars, all seem attracted to Gautam. Well, not quite. That only happens when they call him Dan. Anish Trivedi's Call Me Dan is a hilarious look at the new India, where arranged marriages and one-night stands are all part of a young man's search for love. Even true love.
