Storyline
Asha is a teenage girl with an indomitable spirit navigating life, high school, and crushes alongside her best friends Max and CeCe. Armed with her unwavering belief in destiny and love (which she’s learned by watching a million Bollywood films), she becomes a champion for the underdog and brings Technicolor to a black-and-white world.

Description The character portrayed is an Indian American female (i.e. ancestry from INDIA), 12-14; seeking singing and dancing ability and experience. Bright and precocious, Asha is a lovable underdog born to be the lead in a Bollywood blockbuster (if only in her own mind). She has always seen the world in Technicolor while everyone else is in black and white. With a unique style to match her bold personality, Asha is eager to take on high school, experience the drama, and maybe even fall in love. She quickly comes face-to-face with the realities of growing up (including heartbreak), but she’s not about to let a little adversity dim her spotlight...SERIES REGULAR.Please only submit actors who have not been seen yet for this project. |
