How Bridgerton's Charithra Chandran Became Edwina Sharma | Teen Vogue

[@rebeccabell5098]

The fact that she's also an Oxford graduate, unbelievably accomplished in so many things and she seems so lovely too - such a queen!!

[@guitarsea003]

Waaaah just found this out and even more in love with her!!!

[@oliveoakapple]

Why are so many British Asian actors Oxbridge graduates 🥲 they’re really acting as a side hustle oml

[@user-ed7et3pb4o]

@@oliveoakapple Oxford and Cambridge have pretty accessible, thriving and well-connected drama scenes, which helps provide an alternative route to those people who hadn't been to fancy drama school since birth lol. I think Charithra also only started acting while at Oxford, she was in some student plays:)

[@aytanitamamasita]

She’s literally as perfect as Edwina

[@pinkurozu6155]

Omg I thought she's around 16..

[@naanthewiser]

A diamond in real life too! She’s so articulate and thoughtful in the answers she gives, so interesting to hear her perspective on things.

[@babe8917]

I think they did great with the casting. As for the actress who played Kate, I really thought she had that regal beauty and elegance and the actress who played Edwina looked like a real life Disney Princess. Beautiful and adorable at the same time. Both are so charming and did amazing.

[@shukhada6664]

Bridgerton has the capability of erasing the beauty line between light and dark skinned women. It was so balanced and so beautiful. Have never been more proud of a show

[@dennisalexanderreilly8624]

and for not perpetuating solely European standards of beauty

[@eurocentricbeauty775]

It’s for the dark women who are for some reason obsessed with our culture. Which is why Europeans don’t like it. It’s historically inaccurate. ugh

i'd have to agree...

[@cgohoh]

I actually really hope they continue on to explore this match in the third season

[@maxonite]

I was rewatching S2 after binging the first half of S3 and midway through I realized I completely forgot if we ever saw what happened to Edwina at the end of S2. I hope they bring her back to explore her match

[@AprilynGrace]

I understand why they always made Charithra attend the interviews and guestings she is well spoken and expressive. Love her.

[@speeeee35]

Both women who played the sisters did fantastic. It wasn’t easy to come in to season 2 with everyone unsure if they wanted to follow the viscount’s love story so the women nailing it was a lot of pressure and they were both sooo likable and perfect for their parts too. Really enjoyed the season. They saved the show. It wasn’t on the chopping block yet but if you think of it… Now people are open to having a different focus each season and if this season had been a flop they wouldn’t have. You know? I wonder if they’re going to have her in next season at all and show her with the queens nephew (haha remember at the end the Queen said she’d fix her up?) and/or if they’ll show her love story at all, or if it’ll only focus on the Bridgerton’s like the book and just have a couple scenes with the focus of season 2 like they did with the focuses of season 1.

[@nearyyin5648]

i was not sure if i wanted to follow the viscount (not my favorite in season 1) but the ladies carried the show on their back and then it went so smooth

[@jasminegreene1570]

Yesss omg I want their to be a season about her with the Queens nephew SO BADLY!

[@anaapernalete]

Yeah, season 2 ended up being my favorite thanks to these two girls and Anthony🥰

[@mariahkemp969]

KATE IS NOT LIKEABLE AT ALL

[@LowSlungBadBitch]

I didn’t like season 1 so I was very happy with season 2. I love Penelope/Nicola so I’m excited for her story.

[@ramisaahmed8531]

She is such a good speaker, very engaging and do likeable! Hope to see her in many future shows and movies!

[@donkeydarko77]

The second season of Bridgerton was fantastic, and Charithra is a huge part of that. I imagine the pressure was enormous, being that this season essentially had a different main cast than the first. However, she & Simone Ashley were able to pull you right into their story, and keep you invested the entire time. Looking forward to more!
