"'Beyond Bollywood' was the Smithsonian's first broad look at the experiences and contributions of Indian immigrants and Indian Americans," Dr. Masum Momaya, curator at the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center, told NBC News. Momaya said visitors from a variety of backgrounds would report that elements of the exhibit reminded them of their own immigrant stories, "such as shoes at the entrance of the exhibition, ambient music from the India of the 1960s and 1970s, black-and-white photographs of ancestors, and Corelle Ware plates and thalis."
