![]() ![]() I don't know if that was intended upon starting season one, but they've allowed that to happen. But I do enjoy that I think he's become a more multidimensional character as we've developed throughout the show. It's pretty automatic for me to switch into it. ![]() MF: Finally, Darren, when you get a new script, are you surprised by the different directions the writers take your character?ĭB: I think the writers make it very easy because they a hundred percent know who Paxton is. We get to be fans for a little bit and we do anticipate, “Wait, what do you think is going to happen?” That's how it really goes every season. So, we get to really go with the flow with the characters, experience those stakes and we get excited. So, we don't know how it's going to end while we're starting. It keeps us on our toes and it doesn't give us too much information right away. So, as we film, we find out what happens, which honestly, I like. Pretty much like a week before we start filming, we get the first episode’s script, and then we keep going. MF: Maitreyi, when a new season begins do you get all the scripts at once or episode by episode? As we can see, it's a little more difficult for him than maybe I would've liked, if I was rooting for him. He’s challenging her and she’s challenging him, trying to keep those feelings at bay and trying to be a good boyfriend for Aneesa. I think that it's difficult for him to navigate how to have a friendship with Devi, while also being in a relationship with Aneesa, and how much he can give to that friendship with Devi. I think at the end of season two, we saw that longing look that he gave watching Devi and Paxton dance. Jaren Lewison: I think that it's hard for him. MF: Jaren, how is Ben handling seeing the new couple? (L to R) Darren Barnet as Paxton Hall-Yoshida, and Maitreyi Ramakrishnan as Devi in 'Never Have I Ever.' Cr. Once you get what you've wanted for so long, you start to realize, "I've done so much work, trying to attain this, I haven't done any work on myself for preparing for it.” I think that shows a lot. It's been a wild ride, and like Maitreyi said, you will see how Devi handles this, and it’s exactly the way you would think. A lot of those cares go away, and he realizes how much he actually likes her, and how much she challenges him. I think a lot of that is dropped as they enter this relationship. MF: Darren, Paxton seems to be taking this relationship more seriously than Devi, is that fair to say?ĭarren Barnet: I think you've seen Paxton kind of get in his head about not wanting to be seen with the girl that got me hit by a car. It's very exciting for her, but of course it doesn't come without its challenges. She’s pined over him for years and it's happening. But it's exciting for her because it's her first real relationship, where she's actually committing to one guy. Maitreyi Ramakrishnan: I mean, pretty much what you think Devi would be like if she was handling a relationship. Moviefone: To begin with, Maitreyi, how is Devi handling her new relationship when this season begins?

In researching it, this is something that happens to people, particularly young people, sometimes after trauma. And then, all of a sudden, they started working again. ![]() And brother, after her parents got divorced, had about four months when his legs were paralyzed. about love and sex and all of that-and we were both really interested, because we had parents that died unexpectedly, in talking about grief and how grief manifests itself. "When we were talking about the series-there are so many teenage series. During an April 2020 interview with Terry Gross on the National Public Radio program "Fresh Air," Mindy Kaling said that the element of the series's plot in which Devi develops temporary paralysis in response to her shock and grief over her father's death was a true story from the real life of the brother of the show's co-creator, Lang Fisher. ![]()
