ANIRUDH PISHARODY as NIRDESH in NEVER HAVE I EVER 3.07

[illicthearts]

One thing I don’t like about Never Have I Ever is how it portrays brown guys. There were like three and out of those three the two that were connected to their culture were portrayed as red flags. Des was a mommas boys and Prashant, I can’t remember exactly but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t exactly supportive of Kamala’s whole issue with the research paper. And the only one guy who ends up in a relationship is whitewashed. Than there’s Mohan, who’s dead. Even Pati ended up with a white guy (from what I heard as I haven’t watch season 4 yet).

Des was perfect for Devi, he was nice, repeating, challenged her academically and put her in her place about her views about their culture. I like to think he was the reason Devi started appreciating and accepting her culture more and while I love Devi’s character development from hating her culture to accepting it and appreciating it, I would’ve loved to see more of brown culture explored. I really wanted to see a brown couple go through Navratri, playing Garba, Diwali, Holi, and all the other festivals together. Also no white man understands how fun and exciting it feels when you’re celebrating these like someone from the same culture. I know a lot of brown girls say brown men are red flags and while that may be true and it’s a whole different conversation as why they might be like that, not every brown guy is like a red flag. The way they grew up and who they were raised by plays a huge role on who they are, everyone is different and I really wish brown guys were portrayed in a better light because this is also a stereotype although maybe not as bad as the whole “all brown guys are creeps and pervs,”

There’s also almost no representation of brown couple in media, there’s like one I can think of and that’s Asha and Ravi from Netflix’s Wedding Season.

Ms. Marvel also have good representation of brown men and, mixed race relationships, that’s aren’t yk just white x POC

"Is this just another crush or is it a stroke of fate?", I ask myself as we look into each other's eyes.

If someone doesn’t make an edit of Anirudh Pisharody to an Anirudh Ravichander song then what is the goddamn point

I should’ve known Des’s mom was so superficial 😔😔 but damn it I wanted Nalini to finally make a connection after her husband died. Also him and Devi were cute but they wouldn’t work because she was willing to fight for their relationship he wasn’t
