Charithra Chandran: ‘My experience post Bridgerton has tempered my ambition’
From starring in Bridgerton to appearing in the comic book adaptation One Piece, Charithra Chandran is one of the most exciting talents redefining what representation looks like on screen.
In this chat with Josh, Charithra opens up about the profound responsibility of being a woman of colour in an industry that wasn't built for her, including the racism, apathy, and backlash she faced when cast in One Piece.
She discusses why her post-Bridgerton journey has quietly reshaped her ambitions and gets candid about therapy, heartbreak, and learning — finally — to ‘take the wins’ and ‘let love in’.
