Reshma’s may have been TV’s first female South Asian series' lead - but she doesn’t want to be just seen as “ethnic fun.” From a little girl’s British Bollywood obsessions - to studying and singing opera in the midwest - to breaking onto the small and big screen - Reshma’s always pushed the boundaries of ethnic casting. You’ve seen her on USA’s flagship series Royal Pains, NBCs' Blindspot, CSI Miami, 30 Rock and the feature film Allegiance. And you’ve definitely HEARD her on Netflix’s SHE-RA (cast white!). But Reshma’s the first to tell you if you don't have roles, you can't get the jobs. And while the times they are a-changing, that doesn’t mean things can’t drive her wackadoodle dandy.
