The fourth and final season of "Never Have I Ever" marked the end of an era for star Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, whose breakout role was on the set of the Netflix series. However, her acting career is still only getting started. Ramakrishnan's next project is the leading role in her very first feature film, a romantic comedy called "The Netherfield Girls" which is a modern-day interpretation of Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice."
As for future film roles, Ramakrishnan is looking forward to exploring all sorts of different genres. She said during an interview with NPR that she longs for the opportunity to act in a car chase. The actress also shared, "My dream role is Rapunzel."
One day, the young actress even hopes to write and direct behind the scenes and even start up her own production company, much like her mentor Mindy Kaling. "I don't want to go behind the camera quite yet," Ramakrishnan clarified to Flaunt. "I still want to get my South Asian face in different roles and in different capacities."
Ultimately, Ramakrishnan hopes to change another aspiring actress' life forever, just like Kaling did for her. "I'll direct and find my brown girl out of 15,000," the actress said.
