Maitreyi Ramakrishnan reveals she’s attracted to ‘personality’ rather than gender: ‘I don’t care if you’re a boy, girl or in between’

Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, who shot to global fame with the worldwide success of Mindy Kaling’s Netflix show Never Have I Ever, has revealed that she is attracted to personalities rather than genders when it comes to dating.

“I am very much so a personality type of person. If you get that banter with me, you can read my face perfectly. I don’t care if you are a boy, girl, or in between,” she said on a recent episode of Laverne Cox’s E! series If We’re Honest.


The 20-year-old went on to add, “You are my person, and you are just the package that the person comes in. I’m very much about personality, and I don’t really do labels for attraction. It’s just someone who understands me.”

Ramakrishnan revealed that unlike her Never Have I Ever character Devi Vishwakumar, she is not that obsessed about her love life in real life and is not looking for a new romantic partner at the moment. She added that her last relationship occurred in high school and that she is “more of a bada*s when single”.

“The other day, I said to Mindy, ‘I think I’m just more of a badass when I’m single. Right now, in my life, I am so happy just doing me and being there for myself,” she said.

Never Have I Ever sees Maitreyi Ramakrishnan in the role of an Indian-American teenager attempting to strike a balance between her home life and a complicated love triangle, while also dealing with the loss of her father.

The show is loosely inspired by creator Mindy Kaling’s teen years. Ramakrishnan is nominated for Female TV Star and Comedy TV Star of 2022 at this year’s People’s Choice Awards for playing Devi Vishwakumar.

'Thudarum' review round-up: Mohanlal returns to form in a dark, emotional ride that’s winning hearts

Director Tharun Moorthy’s Thudarum has drawn attention not just for its gripping storyline, but for bringing back the Mohanlal audiences have longed to see: an actor rooted in emotion rather than spectacle. With critics praising both the writing and performances, Thudarum has emerged as a memorable addition to Mohanlal’s long filmography, with reviewers calling it a return to form.

Across the board, reviewers highlight how the film presents Mohanlal as Shanmugham (nicknamed Benz), a humble taxi driver and former stuntman who now lives a quiet life in a Kerala village with his wife, played by Shobana, and two children. His prized possession is his old black Ambassador car, a gift from a mentor which becomes central to the plot when it’s unknowingly used, setting off a chain of devastating events.

Can Sreeleela fill the big Bollywood void?

It is no secret that Bollywood is facing a talent drought. While established stars continue to dominate screens, there is a clear gap when it comes to younger actors making a strong mark.

In the past, each generation delivered a crop of newcomers who injected fresh energy into the industry. That pattern has stalled in recent years, with fewer young actors making a lasting impression. Into this space steps Sreeleela, a fast-rising actor from the South who has begun to attract serious attention in Hindi cinema.
