Apr 12, 2022 Full Review Aarushi Agni Bitch Media It's a joke-laden comedy of errors, riddled with sentimental montages of Devi's father (the very charming Ramamurthy at his DILF-iest), Indian diasporic angst, and of course, teen drama.

Dec 28, 2023 Full Review Bill Brioux Brioux.tv Maitreyi Ramakrishnan — who has the comedy chops — plays Devi, a sophomore student trying to get past the sudden death of her father and the psychological paralysis it triggered. Somehow the actress and Kalling make that seem funnier than it reads. Oct 13, 2022 Full Review Michael Cuby them. Like Mindy's best sitcoms, Never Have I Ever spends just as much time exploring the lives of the compelling characters immediately in Devi’s orbit... Oct 3, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews
