PALO ALTO, Calif. — The Indo-American Community of West Coast recently announced that actress Ashwini Bhave, Indian-American journalist Raj Mathai, and comedian Rajiv Satyal will emcee the community reception at the SAP Center Sept. 27 welcoming Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Silicon Valley, where he will share his vision of innovation for a Digital India.
Bhave, a well-known Bollywood actress and longtime resident of the Bay Area, has an acting career that has spanned over 40 films with several critically-acclaimed performances. Her more recent projects have focused on social causes, and she has played the role of executive producer and director on such projects.
Six-time Emmy award winner Mathai is the weeknight news anchor for NBC Bay Area and is among the Bay Area’s most well-known TV personalities.

A standup comedian and writer from Cincinnati, Ohio, Satyal hosts his own weekly show at the Laugh Factory in Hollywood and has been featured on numerous media outlets. In August 2014, Rajiv released a video, “I Am Indian,” that went viral. He co-created the world-touring “Make Chai Not War,” a Hindu/Muslim stand-up show sponsored by the U.S. State Department.
