The Archies - With White Names?

Can someone explain to me why the cast has white names?

Yeah a bit confusing. If you’re trying to make an Indian Archies, why not actually have Indian characters? How else do they plan to distinguish themselves from Riverdale?

Kya naam hote hindime?

Veronica - Veena

Archie - Arhaan

Betty - Bebo

Jughead- Juginder

Baaki ka yaad nahi hai naam, and why does Shweta's son looks like her with a wig?

May the characters parents settled in India after the  British rule 🤔

This whole project has always come across as a harebrained proposal put together to accommodate the launch of all nepo chirags. Zoya gets awfully defensive at any criticism with regards to Archies. It's doomed. 

SAG-AFTRA should also get behind banning this, they all look AI generated to me. I just can't shake that thought off whenever I see any of these "actors"😆

Ohoph3lia I've been meaning to ask you.. when will you add your barbie review to the movie review thread ? Thanks
