Everything We Know About Netflix's ‘Best of the Best'

The upcoming Netflix feature Best of the Best starring Hasan Minhaj was first announced in 2023, with Flora & Ulysses director Lena Khan set to direct. Two years later the Bollywood-style comedy focused on the world of collegiate-level dance competitions is really coming together. Here's everything we know about the movie so far. Maya and Anjali are two childhood best friends who find the dynamic of their relationship changes after joining their college's competitive Bollywood dance team. In the team's quest to win the national championship, both girls discover just how cutthroat the experience of traditional dance can get. Per Variety, the story celebrates 'the vibrancy of Bollywood Fusion Dance, the growing pains of young adulthood and the lasting power of friendship.' On July 17, Variety reported that Never Have I Ever star Maitreyi Ramakrishnan had joined Minhaj along with Everything To Me's Priyanka Kedia. Khan had directed Ramakrishnan in several episodes of her hit show on Netflix. The actress seemed to refer to training for the new role in an Instagram post about the film, writing in the caption, 'my body is sore but my heart is full💗💃🏾.' Kedia celebrated the news she was joining the cast as well, writing in a post, 'the most surreal announcement i never could have imagined i'd get to make. from the bottom of my heart thank you thank you thank you for making that little girl's (and her parents') dreams come true. this is going to be such an insanely special one. get ready!!!!!!!!!!!! 🥹❤️' The script was penned by Minhaj and Prashanth Venkataramanujam, who are also producing, along with Jonathan Eirich and Ryan Halprin for Rideback. This post will be updated.
