Maitreyi Ramakrishnan is a Canadian actress. She is best known for her roles in Netflix’s Never Have I Ever and Pixar’s Turning Red.
Maitreyi Ramakrishnan was born on December 28, 2001 (Maitreyi Ramakrishnan: Age 21) in Mississauga, Ontario to Tamil parents. She identifies as Tamil Canadian. She graduated from Measowvale Secondary School.
Ramakrishnan has been accepted to the theatre program at York University but had delayed higher education for her acting career. In 2021, she decided to pursue a degree in human rights and equity studies but has still delayed attending college.
In 2019, Ramakrishnan submitted her audition tape to Netflix and was chosen by Mindy Kaling for the lead role in Never Have I Ever. In the show, Ramakrishnan plays Devi Vishwakumar who is a 15-year-old Indian American Tamil girl who must deal with her father’s sudden passing in her freshman year in high school. Hoping for a better sophomore year, Devi tries to make new friends and relationships but it proves harder than she imagined. The show was received positively and launched Ramakrishnan’s acting career. The actress has since reprised her role as Devi for another two seasons of Never Have I Ever.
In an exclusive interview with uInterview, Ramakrishnan talked about her favorite moments when shooting Never Have I Ever.
“Honestly, I am just such a sucker for the crew,” she revealed. “We have a lot of fun times as a crew. We have a lot of pranks that happen on set. Our director of photography does a lot of pranks. That’s really amazing. Yeah, I would say any moment with the crew because they work really hard.”
Ramakrishnan received nominations for a Canadian Screen Award, an MTV Movie & TV Award and an Independent Spirit Award. She was also named a Breakout Actor in Time’s 100 Next List of Influential and Rising Stars.
Ramakrishnan’s next role was as Priya Mangal in Pixar’s Turning Red in 2022. Priya is the deadpan, vampire-lover, best friend of the movie’s main character. Shortly after this, Ramakrishnan landed the role of Zipp Storm in Netflix’s My Little Pony: Make Your Mark.
On February 1, the American Heart Association had its annual Go Red for Women Red Dress Collection to raise awareness about heart disease. Along with musical performances, women modeled red dresses at the runway show. Ramakrishnan wore a red silky, strapless dress to the event.
In an exclusive interview with uInterview, Ramakrishnan described what makes her feel beautiful in a dress.
“I love fashion, I am a huge fashion person,” she started. “I love trying a bunch of different styles and aesthetics because I am very privileged to be in the job that I am. Which I get to have all these opportunities. Yeah, it’s all about making myself feel confident and beautiful and comfortable ideally.”
