Ashley Tisdale is heading back to television!

It was just announced that the actress and producer has been cast as a series regular in the new CBS pilot Pandas In New York, according to Deadline.

The comedy show follows a family of Indian doctors with a successful group practice in New York City who embark on a project to arrange their youngest son Rishi’s life, unaware he’s made plans of his own.

Ashley will play Maya, the director of a free clinic where Rishi works. She has a highly developed sense of fairness and an outsized focus on social justice, particularly when it comes to the dismal state of healthcare for the poor. Underneath her tough exterior is a warm, sensitive person who is attracted to Rishi, which she tries to deny.
