However, it does not hinge on South Indian tropes a lot in this season, which might irk many as that was the USP of the series. It also raises the question as to how much the diaspora kids really understand their culture and heritage. Kamala and Devi’s grandmother Nirmala (Ranjita Chakravarty) objects to their relationship because she realizes that Manish’s understanding of India is superficial and stereotypical. The difficulty of finding and identifying your roots and the idea of being an Indian gets a good treatment in an interesting storyline with Devi’s cousin Kamala (Richa Moorjani) and her boyfriend Manish (Utkarsh Ambudkar). Still, Never Have I Ever grows in other ways this season. There are several potential pivots that get missed this season. The sequence ends with them having a cordial relationship but with hardly any logical reason being given for it. Emotional and heartwarming scenes that had the potential to stand out are not given enough footage, case being Ben and Paxton bonding at the hospital. Also, in the third season Eleanor and Fabiola despite having their own romances are hardly invested in them and Ben disappears for full episodes entirely, while tries hard to give relevancy to Paxton. However, with so much going on the makers fail to milk the storylines properly and subplots are let hanging in the middle with too less attention. One of the newer romances in the series is between Trent Harrison (Benjamin Norris) and Eleanor Wong (Ramona Young) and its interesting to see these stock characters getting their own story lines. On the other hand, the other characters Aneesa Qureshi (Megan Suri) and Ben Gross (Jaren Lewison) are coupled up, and Fabiola Torres (Lee Rodriguez) and Eve Hjelm (Christina Kartchner) are still going steady, making the third season all about romantic relationships and love which becomes somewhat dizzying and lackluster.

The culturally specific nuances that made the first two seasons such a hit takes a backseat in the third season and has been replaced with generic high school comedy and teenage romance. While the first two seasons were heavily focused on Devi navigating her teenage years and coming to terms with the death of her father, the third season is overtly devoted to romance. Never Have I Ever Season 3 sees Devi (Maitreyi Ramakrishnan) finally having her dreams come true of dating the hottest guy in the high school jock Paxton Hall-Yoshida (Darren Barnet). Mindy Kaling and Lang Fisher’s teen rom-com Never Have I Ever is back for season 3, and this time picks off right where the previous season left us. ![]() Cast: Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, Darren Barnet, Megan Suri, Jaren Lewison, Lee Rodriguez, Christina Kartchner, Benjamin Norris, Ramona Young, Richa Moorjani, Utkarsh Ambudkar, Ranjita Chakravarty, Anirudh Pisharody, Poorna Jagannathan, John McEnroe
