Mindy Kaling spills details about Maitreyi’s character in Never Have I Ever season 3
Mindy Kaling and Lang Fisher's teen rom-com Never Have I Ever is back for Season 3, and this time, the Netflix show begins triumphantly: after two seasons of heartbreak and romantic mishaps, Devi Vishwakumar (Maitreyi Ramakrishnan) is finally with the (one of the) boy(s) of her dreams. For what the audience can anticipate from the season, Mindy Kaling is dropping hints. The third season of the well-liked Netflix series, according to Kaling and Ramakrishnan, is all about Devi's progress.
Mindy revealed, "The romance is obviously so fun and we love those sexy situations and all the awkwardness and all the observations about that," though she revealed that season 3 was not just about that as she continued, "But ultimately, this show, we wanted it to be about a young woman who has gone through some trauma and have her heal. There are setbacks and then there are times when she does a lot of growth. That is the most important to me and that’s why it’s so joyous to have Maitreyi playing this part because she’s so funny in the first episode [of season 3] alone, which I wrote."
She further added, "But it is these moments with her dad or with her therapist, played by the wonderful Niecy Nash, where you get what is under the layers of... trying to be cool. She’s gonna be okay, so that’s the most important part of the show for me. So, It's definitely a Team Devi season.
Never Have I Ever season 3 will stream on Netflix from August 12.
