Okay…but Maitreyi is there too. Atleast put her name in the title as well 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@krissivamurthy5810]

Mindy and Maitreyi,you both created magic on screen.Everyone on the show are awesome actors.All the best to the cast and crew.

[@richsouthall1937]

One of the best coming-of-age stories to come along in a long time. I'm a 59 year-old, white guy, but the issues of love, romance, puberty and school we experience in our teen years are universal in nature and we can all relate to these feelings and emotions; no matter what our age. The show is funny, touching, emotional and life-affirming. I hope this goes on for 10 seasons! Maitreyi is off the charts! She beautiful and talented and should have a great career ahead of her.

NHIE will have a fourth and final season.

the sparkling jewerly on mindys dress tells us , that she needs a stylist.

[@vildekm]

sure, we should listen to you with that cap & shirt- the pinnacle of stylish lmao

So this show is all about Girl friend and boyfriend Yes We goes to school and college to get Girlfriend and boyfriend

[@TheBinit18]

No offense to anyone but why can't Hollywood have actual teenagers play the roles of teens in their dramas. Paxton looks so old to be someone who is 16-17 year old. They should really try to have younger actors. It's just not this show, I have seen so many US based Netflix dramas with much older actors playing teenagers.

[@puamanaohana]

💖✌️☀️☀️🖖💙

[@khanmadamformiskeen]

Shame on the makers for making thr character of Aneesa another south asian character to degrade so rapidly on the show against their main lead to uplift the main lead character.

[@mikeaaron8506]

padma,kamala,maitreyi,mindy wow all tamil girls,why rest of india doesnt have women presence,even in india the state of tamil nadu 4oads full of women,working,studying and in sports,but in rest of the states they are showcase dolls,not to been seen so much outside,or in roads,suprising

[@markusmath3421]

Oh we can tell lmfao...that awful Velma show definitely felt personal

[@Lavenderlavenderful]

Matriye is what like 16? Is there a reason she needs to look 25?

[@Lavenderlavenderful]

@@truthsayer3863 oh ok then she’s definitely on a mission to dress older for some reason despite the show.

[@Violet.18]

@@Lavenderlavenderful calm down, she's dressed appropriately for her age and looks great. I suggest you worry about your own wardrobe, it will benefit you more in the long run.

[@eloivilarinho1529]

dude she's 20

[@silkk7993]

Implants??

[@jrr4475]

Been wondering the same

[@Pranavntespam]

Go off.

[@CamilaSaurus]

What? She’s growing and young

[@wheathusk2499]

Are you serious? She is a teen growing into a woman. She doesn't strike me as insecure enough to get implants at such a young age. Mindy on the other hand idk. She clearly has had work done on her face.

[@MsYolost]

@@wheathusk2499 Thought the same but she's already 20 and they definitely look like implants. Nothing wrong about it, I would just wish that stars who get things done were honest about it

[@shannonrobson2237]

She thinks she’s famous??

[@LokeshThakur]

its a pretty terrible show.

[@guilainefeutchine886]

Nope
