Never Have I Ever star Maitreyi Ramakrishnan made waves at a recent Nintendo event, dressed in a modern Mario-inspired outfit.

Known for her love of anime, video games, and cosplay, Ramakrishnan was a natural fit to channel the iconic video game character. She swapped Mario’s classic overalls for stylish cargo jeans with multiple pockets, a red sleeveless turtleneck top, and a cropped leather jacket that she wore off the shoulder. Adding the final Mario touch, she wore a red cap with the signature "M" — fitting for both "Mario" and "Maitreyi."

While it wasn’t Halloween, Ramakrishnan’s look showcased a casual, easily wearable Mario homage that fans could take inspiration from. In past cosplays, she’s brought characters like Ninja Turtle Donatello, Sailor Mars from Sailor Moon, and Yuno Gasai from Future Diary to life. Her Princess Peach look in 2022 also remains a fan favorite.

Expressing her gratitude, Ramakrishnan captioned her post, “forever and always a Nintendo girlie,” highlighting her lifelong connection to Nintendo, especially the Switch console. “I am filled with gratitude...to talk about my genuine love for Nintendo and what video games have meant to my family,” she wrote, inviting fans to connect over their shared love of gaming.
