Why do romcoms love the desi girlwhite guy trope? It's overdone and outdated. The real interracial diversity is on Insta Reels

Expand your palette

We're over the Whiteguy-saves-Brown-girl TV trope. Insta's Tushita and her Jamaican husband Brendan show that IRL, interracial love comes in more than one form.

Who's the hottest girl in the world? White guys seem to think it's desi girls. At least, that's what romcoms will have you believe. Most plots are about ambitious-but-lowkey-insecure Brown women who land gorgeous rich White guys. Is this the best we can do in a globalised world? Mindy Kaling is notorious for milking this specific pairing. When the Netflix show Never Have I Ever (2020-2023) came out, fans called it "a win for Brown girl representation".
