I think Kamala’s character doesn’t seem to fit in terms of being South Indian more than Mohan’s mom.

Both Kamala and Mohan's mom don't fit very well. Devi slightly above average looking, and tall pale Kamala looks like she was a contestant for Miss India. Even Devi's mom is taller and paler than one would expect, but she's a very good actress in this role, so I accept her. Kamala overacts.

What idiotic generalizations. Not all South Indians are dark and short and not all North Indians are pale. I’m South Indian and everyone in my immediate and extended family is the same color as Kamala or lighter and most of us are tall. Devi is v. pretty as are many dark skinned South Indian women. You sound like a disgusting colorist with your bs passive aggressive remarks.

Agree 💯. People heard this or had an Indian friend who told them this and are running with it. They have no idea.

Did we all know Paxton is 30 (!!!) in real life?!?!

I wondered how old the Pax actor was when I noted his many forehead lines.

Woohoo! Now I don't feel as bad for thinking he's hot

Me too! lol.

Ramona Young is 28 in real life.

She's 23

No she isn’t. She lied about her age. She graduated from college in 2012.

Oh snap you’re right.

Maybe one parent is north Indian.

Still.

I’m South Indian. Skin tones in my family go from dark to light, and no one is North Indian, at least not in recent generations. I don’t think it’s unrealistic. I do find the accents unrealistic. I bet the actors are Indian-American and doing Indian accents. The mom does a good job of it but Kamala and her boyfriend do not, IMO.
