Born Vera Mindy Chokalingam, she is majorly known by her professional name, Mindy Kaling. The smart and outspoken Mindy has succeeded in creating a niche for herself in the comedy sector of America’s entertainment industry.

While she was in Dartmouth College, she used to contribute to a comic strip for her college’s daily newspaper. Today, with her superb talents and skills, she stands as one of the biggest female comedic personalities of Hollywood.

Date of Birth: June 24, 1979

Zodiac Sign: Cancer

Kaling is known for appearing in the hit sitcom The Office (2005) as well as for starring in her own TV show, The Mindy Project (2012 – present). In addition to her many appearances on TV, Mindy is also a voice actress who has lent her voice to a number of movie characters, like in Inside Out (2015), Wreck-It Ralph (2012) and many others. Read on to see all the juicy details about her family life and this new human addition to her life.

In 2016, both siblings were involved in a public feud after Mindy made an odd comment after the release of her brother’s memoir. Vijay replied to his sister’s criticism and it was indeed a tough time for the siblings.
