Description:
Years after fleeing an arranged marriage at the altar, the directionless Sameera is still mopping up her messy life in LA with the help of her also-struggling friends. Oh, but her ex-fiancée just moved in next door, and he's quite attractive now.
Breakdown:
Role Name | Gender | Ethnicity | Age Range | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
Sameera | Female | Asian | 20-35 | SAMEERA is our way into the show. She is Indian-American, 29, and a very bad Indian according to her culture. Sameera is essentially a Zooey Deschanel but wants to be a Priyanka Chopra. She feels the pressure to do something with her life, especially because she left a guy at the altar, and has nothing to show for it. She has not figured out her career, waits tables begrudgingly, dates toolbags, and has a strained relationship with her traditional parents. Her internal arc is learning to be more comfortable in her skin and rid of herself of guilt. |
Manish | Male | Asian | 25-35 | MANISH, 33, gay, thin, razor-tongued, and also Sameera’s best friends. He used to preach how monogamy is unnatural but now finds himself in a secure, adult relationship with Daniel. Is it time for Manish to grow up? He operates immediately on emotion. |
Natasha | Female | Asian | 25-35 | NATASHA, 29, is Sameera’s best friend and roommate. Single brown female…not like that. She moved to LA to be an actress. She comes from privileged parents, but never flaunts her wealth. She is slowly learning how actors’ rejection is not something she wants on the daily and will find herself working in a different capacity in Hollywood. Her and Sameera have a bond as thick as Lucy & Ethel. Rosé all day. |
Fatima | Female | Asian | 25-35 | FATIMA, 30, Muslim-American, is Kash’s fiancée. She is a svelte trainer who has become an entrepreneur solely through Instagram. She is secure, kind, strong, organized, and not jealous. She actually wants to befriend Sameera and help her become a blogger. |
Daniel | Male | Any | 30-45 | DANIEL, 40, gay, and Manish’s boyfriend. He is an adult who has come to terms that he has a great life in LA, even if he waits tables still. Being older than the rest, he is a voice of reason, not understanding why everyone is obsessed with being perfect. |
