    In E. Lockhart’s “We Have been Liars,” Gatwick Patil is an outsider. He and his uncle are the one folks on Beechwood Island not descended from the illustrious Sinclairs (“outdated cash Democrats,” Lockhart calls them), a mismatched puzzle piece of their privileged, white world.

    The identical may very well be mentioned of Shubham Maheshwari, who brings the beloved character to life in Prime Video’s eight-episode adaptation; an economics main from Dubai who auditioned by way of Zoom after an open casting name after which ended up in Nova Scotia for an absolute crash course in TV manufacturing.

    However as a credit score to the sequence, Maheshwari by no means felt like an outsider. He definitely felt just like the child and the brand new child, however he additionally felt empowered by Lockhart, by showrunners Carina Adly MacKenzie and Julie Plec, by Rahul Kohli (who performs Gat’s uncle Ed), and by skilled contemporaries Emily Alyn Lind, Esther McGregor, and Joseph Zada (in a forged that features David Morse, Caitlin Fitzgerald, Mamie Gummer, and extra).

    Maheshwari is an economics main and a testomony to the facility of Backstage, a platform he turned to each time his schedule opened up or his courseload lightened. He’s very conscious that if even one small factor had gone in a different way — a self-tape, a wifi connection, a delayed flight — he may not be right here.

He and his castmates walked the crimson carpet and acquired to chop the road on the Empire State Constructing (“It felt horrible… but it surely was so cool”). He’s excited to get again to auditioning and hopefully discover illustration, now with a giant title to his identify — in addition to that econ main.
