Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, best known for her role in the Netflix series Never Have I Ever, recently opened up about the Tangled rumours and the “racist trolls”. It all started when rumours stating that Maitreyi would possibly play Rapunzel in a live-action adaptation of Disney's Tangled began doing the rounds on the Internet. Responding to “the racists”, Maitreyi wrote on X (formerly Twitter), “And, they finally woke up to realise it was all just rumours and the sources never existed. Good job! And to the racists, y'all still need a hobby fr.” She has added a clown face emoji to her tweet. ICYMI, a segment of the internet suggested that since Rapunzel is a German story, the lead role should be played by a blonde white woman. and they finally woke up to realize it was all just rumours and the sources never existed. good job! and to the racists, y'all still need a hobby fr???? like for any fancast you may have for any actor, south asian or not, all the racist trolls can just stay basement dwellers. y'all probably don't even go outside to the movies anyway let alone touch grass also lol she's still my dream role, been saying that since 2021. no one's gonna stop me from literally just TRYING to achieve my dreams. def not racists who are internet historians hahahaha I've made it like really clear that like Rapunzel IS my dream role… right?
