“”I remember my first reaction when I saw just a rough sketch of Priya while recording. I was immediately so excited about how similar she looks to me. I’m talking about the bushy hair, the nose piercing, glasses, and the slight eye bags. From probably staying up way too late the night before!” Ramakrishnan continued. When I was in middle school, I was definitely not as calm and cool as Priya is no. But we’re both always willing to defend a buddy.”

The actress explained how she got into character for her first time as a voice actor. “It’s a tight line to tread between sounding happy, sad, or angry while remaining monotonous. Priya may have a monotonous voice, but she has sentiments just like any other middle school student. So keeping that in mind was crucial. It also helps to record early in the morning to sound monotonous! Mornings aren’t my favourite time of day “Maitreyi remarked.
