who played the asian girl in harry potter
But letâs talk about the ASIANS that are in Harry Potter. Yes. There are some Asians in Harry Potter. J.K. Rowling graciously wrote in a couple Asian roles. The biggest of these roles is probably Cho Chang, played by Chinese-Scottish actress Katie Leung, and Harryâs former love interest.
Even though she might not be Harryâs girl for the long run, Cho was quite significant in past movies as Harryâs first adolescent love. Furthermore, Parvati Patil and Padma Patil were both played by Indian girls. Padma is played by Afshan Azad and Parvati by Shefali Chowdhury. So there are a few Asians repping in the Harry Potter series! Sure itâs not that many, but at the same time itâs not the director or casting directorsâ fault.
