Hey Kal! As a South-Asian, thank you for bringing in South Asian representation and breaking the glass ceiling not just as a south Asian actor in Hollywood but also playing as a South-Asian actor smoking ganja and not the IT guy/Doctor on screen, for this Thank You.

My question to you is two-fold - What are your thoughts on South-Asian actors taking more lead and prominent roles in Hollywood ?

What are your thoughts on Indian Actors playing roles with Anglicized names and characters? For instance on the morning show, Hasan Minhaj plays an Eric, Aziz played a Tom Haverford on Parks and Rec. Do you think we will reach a point where actors in Hollywood will be able to play a Harvinder Singh or even a Kalpen Modi ? ;-)

Thanks Bhai :)

Thanks for the elaborate response Kal! Truly honored and you've made my day!

I hope in 2040/2050 that we would've crossed some of these barriers! :-)

Not editing my post, but just refining my thoughts on the question of lead and prominent actors -
Do you think Hollywood is in the state of accepting a South-Asian Actor to the level of Tom Cruise or Brad Pitt?

TIL! Thank You!

That 7/11 on Lancaster walk is probably one of the biggest reasons I graduated haha. Also I feel like they're all High quality compared to ones I've seen in other cities.
