Co-created by Mindy Kaling and Lang Fisher, Never Have I Ever follows Devi (Maitreyi Ramakrishnan), an Indian-American student, as she deals with the death of her father, high school crushes, and complicated family life.

In one of the episodes of the popular American series, we see its lead actress Maitreyi Ramakrishnan dancing to the hitTelugu-language song “Saami Saami” from Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna’s pan-India blockbuster Pusha: The Rise (2023), leaving Indian fans over joyous.


Reacting to the song being featured in the series, Composer Devi Sri Prasad, aka DSP, said that he is “really happy about it.”

Talking to indianexpress.com, Devi Sri Prasad said, “I feel really good, and I am happy about it. ‘Oo Antava’ was also featured around the globe and now “Saami Saami” has also featured in this, and that too the Tamil version.”

He added, “I have seen a bit of that show. I didn’t watch the whole thing, though but I have seen parts of the show.”

The composer is currently working on multiple projects, but expectations are riding high on the soundtrack of Pushpa: The Rule, the second installment of Pushpa: The Rise.
