'Never Have I Ever' is a teen-comedy series that revolves around Devi, an Indian-American teenage girl, who faces different situations after she recovers from a traumatic year. Devi is played by Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, who recently did a voice-over for the character of Priya, a mellow girl who is one of Mei's best friends in the Pixar film 'Turning Red'.

As we have seen in the last two seasons, Devi has tried to improve her status in school by trying to be cool and rebranding herself but friends, family, and feelings don't make it easy for her. We saw Eleanor telling Devi in Season 2, "You really Devi’d this one up" but she battles it through. Devi navigates through new romantic relationships in season 2 where she is confused between Paxton and Ben but after some soul searching and with the help of her therapists and friends, she finally decides to be with Paxton (Darron Barnet), as seen in the trailer of season 3.

1) Mindy Kaling, the executive producer of 'Never Have I Ever' was asked in an exclusive interview to ET online about why she wanted to end the show after season 4 in 2023, to which Kaling replied, "Four seasons for a high school show felt like it made sense, They can’t be in high school forever. We've seen those shows. Like, you've been in high school for 12 years. What is going on here? Also, the actors get older and it starts looking insane that a 34-year-old is playing a 15-year-old."
