Netflix has been on the go releasing several titles making its audiences glued to the platform. And soon it will be televising a coming-of-age comedy series “Never Have I Ever.” The best part of the series is it is written and co-created by Lang Fisher and Mindy Kaling. Kaling has earlier served as an executive producer and writer on The Office, while Fisher has worked as a writer for shows like The Mindy Project, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, and 30 Rock. So, surely there would be loads of expectations from this web series.
With a short teaser clip on Instagram, the release date of Never Has I Ever was been revealed by Kaling herself. Roll up your sleeves, as the ten-episode series will be showcased on Netflix on April 27, 2020.
The lead character of the show, Devi will be portrayed by Maitreyi Ramakrishnan. It is also her television debut. Poorna Jagannathan will be playing the role of Devi’s mother, Nalini. The story is to be depicted by much-loved Johny McEnroe showcasing Devi’s dead father. Other key roles will be played by Richa Moorjani, Benjamin Norris, Ramona Young, and Adam Shapiro.
Never Have I Ever is encouraged by the childhood of Mindy Kaling. The story revolves around Devi, who is a first-generation Indian-American teen, and her tangled life. The teaser shows us the teen girl praying on her school’s first day to go to a party loaded with alcohol & hard drugs, for a boyfriend jesting that he can even be a dumb jock, and for her arm hair to moderate. Devi seems to have lost her father recently. Also, Devi has a short fuse that does not get left in the finest situations.
Never Have I Ever appears to echo the feelings of several teenagers as they begin their teenage years. So, many of us would find the series to be quite relatable and hopefully, it would entertain us to the core. And here starts the countdown for the release.
