Sujata Day is an American actress, model, and screenwriter. You may know her as CeeCee in the Issa Rae web series, The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl (2011-2013) and Sarah in Insecure. In 2019, it was announced that Day will direct a film called Definition, Please, for which she also wrote the script. It stars Ritesh Rajan and Jake Choi and was shot on location in Greensburg, Pennsylvania in the summer of 2019.

Definition Please is one of two titles from South Asian female filmmakers debuting on Netflix from Ava DuVernay's ARRAY.

We talked about growing up in a small town as a brown girl, what really needs to change in Hollywood to get more South Asian representation, why we both love coming-of-age films, how the model minority myth affected us personally, and the spelling bee word that will haunt her forever

The film dropped on Netflix last week and here to do a special introduction is her childhood friend and one of my dear friends. Monica Jindal Mehta.
