Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, Priyanka Kedia & Hasan Minhaj — Best of the Best
Published 3 weeks ago
Description
The stars and creator of Netflix's new Bollywood-fusion dance comedy pull up together. Maitreyi Ramakrishnan (Never Have I Ever) plays Maya and Priyanka Kedia plays Anjali — childhood best friends and the emotional center of UCLA's dance team on a shot at the US Championship — while co-creator Hasan Minhaj steps in front of the camera as professor Hamza Latif. The trio talks Lena Khan's direction, choreography that had to hit as hard as the laughs, and why the movie feels like a love letter to the desi diaspora.
